The government’s decision to scrap the value cap on courier exports has been welcomed by logistics companies and e-commerce players, who say the move will significantly boost cross-border trade and ease doing business for exporters.
Industry stakeholders believe the removal of the cap will enable small and medium exporters, D2C brands and online sellers to ship higher-value consignments through courier mode, improving speed, cost efficiency and global market access. The change is also expected to drive higher volumes for express logistics providers and strengthen India’s position as a growing hub for e-commerce exports.
Logistics firms said the move aligns with the government’s broader push to promote exports, simplify customs procedures and support MSMEs, while helping Indian sellers compete more effectively in global markets.
