Cargo/Parcel cell of Indian Railway...

Hello mates....Is anyone can help me out in finding the procedure for sending goods from one place to another...

I have a bicycle to transport from Delhi to NJP(new jalpaiguri..west bengal)

Plz if possible let me know:-

1)How much it will cost me.
2)How much(weight) one individual can take with him while doing journey.
3)Any important information regarding the same...

Thx a lot....

If you are traveling in the same train, then you may book it in the luggage van, it will travel with you.

thnx Delhiwala....unfortunately I am not travelling in the same train,I just have to send one mountain bike from delhi to NJP(west bengal)....so what are the possibilities..

No problem, you can still book it on the train. That'll be the cheapest medium to do it. Go to Parcel office of New Delhi Railway Station on Ajmeri gate side. There are many agents who'll do it on turnkey basis for you....or you can do it yourself also.

Ok,thanks ....Do you have any idea how much it will cost for the same and how much(weight) one can send at a time?

Thanx a lot,I got the required information from http://www.indianrailways.gov.in/........

Oh ! You can send any weight. That's no issue. Cargo is a separate business for Railways, they don't do it free they earn money from it.

I do not remember the prices/rates...but it will be most cost effective....should be around Rs. 200-300.

I have to send 40 ton material from mumbai to Bharatpur (Rajasthan)by Indian railway cargo/parcel. Please help me how can I do it.

You'll have to go to the station....and ask them for Goods office.

I hope yours arrives intact. The one I shipped was stripped to the frame..

This might happen, if there are trans shipments i.e. If tehre is no direct train and there are many trains involved.

Once, I sent 4-5 cartons...from Bhilai, Chhatisgarh to Dehradun, all reached safely....

In my case too...fortunately pacel reached safely...Thanks to railway guys..but smtime we have to face bad experiences too...

I've to send 109 boxes from Delhi to Hyderabad. The outer Dimension of 1 box is 93*82*57(cm) & actual weight of 1 box is about 15.5 kg. How can i book my parcel? what is it cost?

Thxs

Go to New Delhi railway station, they should be able to tell you.
