Abstract

The Indian Postal Service, with 155,333 post offices, is the most widely distributed post office system in the world. The global economic and financial crisis has further deteriorated the conditions in mail markets, with postal operators losing up to 20percent of their mail traffic during this two-year economic downturn, and forecasting losses of 30 percent In the recent decades, the courier service sector worldwide underwent radical changes, to become a significant factor in the exchange of goods and communications in today’s era of global connectivity and mass Internet penetration. Both the supply and demand are transformed. Traditional courier services are increasingly affected by competitive pressure of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and the process of globalization. Apart from getting adapted to the rapidly changing environment, courier companies strive to become a driving force for change by offering more specific and diverse services.
