The reason is that sending parcels through the mail route will still be a cheaper and easier option than other courier services. In addition, the department has made it clear that no extra costs of the customers will be charged and that the post rates will remain the same. How much will it cost? According to the post department, this step is important to increase exports and make Indian products in the international market competitive. The Post Department said it would continue services such as DDP (delivered duty) without any extra cost.
