New Delhi, April 27 In a move aimed at strengthening India’s logistics and e-commerce ecosystem, the Department of Posts (DoP) under the Ministry of Communications on Monday signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with DTDC Express Limited.
The agreement was formalised in the national capital in the presence of senior officials from both sides.
The MoU was signed by Neeraj Kumar Jha, General Manager of Parcel Directorate at the Department of Posts, and Jatinder Sethi, National Channel Head at DTDC Express.
The partnership builds on an ongoing collaboration between the two organisations that began in 2025 and seeks to deepen their engagement in parcel and logistics operations.
The agreement focuses on leveraging DoP’s extensive nationwide infrastructure along with DTDC’s expertise in logistics to enhance parcel delivery services across the country.
As part of the collaboration, DTDC will be able to utilise the Department of Posts’ vast network of over 1.64 lakh post offices, enabling it to expand its reach, particularly in remote and underserved regions.
