Shiprocket, India’s leading eCommerce enablement platform, has launched Same Day Delivery (SDD) in Kolkata, bringing enterprise-grade, fast deliveries to every seller of Bharat. Traditionally, fast delivery has been a luxury available only to major eCommerce brands. Shiprocket is changing this by democratising high-speed delivery, ensuring that MSMEs can also offer quicker deliveries and stay competitive. The service is already live in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad.
With eCommerce shifting towards speed-driven consumer expectations, merchants who offer quick deliveries see higher conversions and stronger customer retention. A Market Data Forecast report states that India’s Same Day Delivery market is projected to surpass $10 billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 23.6%. Shiprocket is leading this transformation by leveraging its advanced tech-driven platform and strategic courier partnerships to bring quick commerce capabilities to a broad spectrum of sellers.
Bringing Speed as a Competitive Advantage to Kolkata’s eCommerce Ecosystem
Kolkata is emerging as a high-potential eCommerce hub, with an average order value of ₹1,500. The top three selling categories in the city include beauty & grooming, clothing & accessories, and jewellery. Shiprocket’s Same Day Delivery as a product has already proven to be a game changer, with brands such as Bata, Mamaearth, Hidesign, Khadim, Mochi, and Wildcraft leveraging it to drive their business forward. SDD provides Kolkata-based sellers a powerful tool to enhance customer satisfaction, drive repeat purchases, and scale their businesses.
