Three numbers decide your shipping cost
1. Chargeable weight
Couriers charge the greater of actual weight or volumetric weight (L×W×H ÷ 5000). Bulky-but-light parcels pay for the box, not the contents.
2. Destination zone
Every courier groups countries into zones. USA, UK, and UAE are usually cheaper than Australia, Brazil, or Africa.
3. Service speed
Express (3–6 days) costs 1.5–2× more than Economy (10–14 days). Pick by deadline, not habit.
International shipping from India — common questions
How is international shipping from India calculated?
It's a function of chargeable weight (greater of actual or volumetric), destination country, courier, and declared item value. Our calculator combines all four.
Which courier is cheapest from India to the USA?
Economy services are cheapest under 2 kg. For speed, DHL Express is usually the most reliable to North America.
Are customs duties included?
We show an estimated duty line based on declared value. The final figure is set by the destination customs office.
What's the cheapest way to ship gifts from India to UK?
Consolidate multiple items into one parcel, pick Economy, and declare honestly — the per-kg rate drops sharply above 2 kg.
Do I need a GST number to ship internationally?
Not for personal shipments. Commercial shipments above ₹50,000 typically require GST and an IEC code.
