Most shipments on the Allahabad–Kolkata lane arrive in 3–5 business days (Surface) or 2–3 business days (Express). Exact timelines depend on the delivery pincode in Kolkata.

Running Daily Allahabad to Kolkata Deliveries
If you regularly fulfil orders from Allahabad into Kolkata and the wider West Bengal market, most of the savings come from choosing the service per order: Surface for parcels that can wait, Express only where the delivery date matters, and boxes sized to avoid volumetric charges.
Orders from a Shopify or WooCommerce store sync into ApnaCourier, and the seller API books from your own system. Failed deliveries in Kolkata land in NDR Management, where you choose a reattempt, correct the address or phone number, or return the parcel.
- Surface or Express chosen per order
- Shopify app, WooCommerce plugin and seller API
- Bulk CSV upload for Allahabad dispatch
- NDR actions for failed deliveries in Kolkata
Allahabad to Kolkata Shipping Rates
Charges on the Allahabad to Kolkata lane depend on the delivery zone, the chargeable weight and the service. Chargeable weight is the higher of the actual weight and the volumetric weight (length × breadth × height in cm ÷ 5000), so a light but bulky box can cost more than a small heavy one.
The shipping rate calculator gives the Delhivery Surface and Express price for Allahabad to Kolkata at any weight before you sign up, and the same price shows again when you book.
- Priced by zone and chargeable weight
- Billed on actual vs. volumetric weight, whichever is greater
