Hyderabad, October 4, 2024: Blue Dart Express Limited, South Asia’s premier express air and integrated transportation and distribution express logistics company, part of the DHL Group, today announced its General Price Increase (GPI), effective from January 1st, 2025. The average price increase will be in the range of 9% to 12%, depending on product variabilities and the shipping profile.

In its ongoing commitment to delivering reliable and efficient logistics solutions, Blue Dart conducts a comprehensive annual review of its pricing structure. This essential decision ensures the continued provision of quality service while fostering sustainable ecosystem collaboration.

These measures help uphold Blue Dart’s high standards amidst inflationary pressures, complexities in the global supply chain, and dynamic changes in the domestic landscape. By proactively addressing these challenges, Blue Dart aims to sustain exceptional service for its customers and effectively support its partners.

Balfour Manuel, Managing Director of Blue Dart, commented on the announcement: “As we step into 2025, we remain committed to delivering exceptional, reliable services. This price adjustment is essential for sustaining our operational excellence while continuing to offer solutions centered on the needs of our stakeholders. In conjunction with our annual price adjustment, we are also mobilizing investments to expand our network, adopt the latest technologies, and enhance our service offerings. We are primed to capitalize on new opportunities and deliver even greater value to our customers and stakeholders.”
