How long does Speed Post take to deliver?

As per India Post's published delivery norms, Speed Post is typically delivered in 1–2 days within the same city, 1–3 days between metros, and 4–5 days for the rest of the country.

Why is my Speed Post tracking not updating?

India Post scans sync periodically, so new checkpoints can take a few hours to appear — especially between sorting hubs. If nothing changes for more than 48 hours, contact your booking post office or the India Post care line with your consignment number.

What is the Speed Post customer care number?

India Post's toll-free customer care line is 1800-266-6868. Keep your 13-character consignment number handy when you call. You can also raise a complaint at your nearest post office.

What is the difference between Speed Post and Registered Post?

Speed Post is India Post's time-bound express service with end-to-end tracking. Registered Post is slower and focused on secure, proof-of-delivery handling for documents. Both can be tracked on Track91 with their respective consignment numbers.

Does Speed Post deliver on Sundays and holidays?

Standard Speed Post deliveries happen on working days. Delivery is generally not attempted on Sundays and postal holidays, and delivery norms exclude these days from the count.

Is Track91 affiliated with India Post?

No. Track91 is an independent tracking tool that shows live status for Speed Post and other India Post consignments. For claims, complaints, or bookings, use the official India Post website or your local post office.
