The company processed more than 107 million e-commerce and freight shipments, marking one of the highest volumes recorded in the sector this season.
Record-Breaking Deliveries Across India
Delhivery achieved a single-day peak of 7.2 million shipments and saw 18,100 clients clock their highest daily orders. Deliveries spanned distances up to 4,085 km—from Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala to Tezu in Arunachal Pradesh. Operational efficiency remained strong, with 29.57 million shipments delivered within 48 hours and 13.59 million within 24 hours. Notably, one delivery in Bengaluru was completed in just two minutes.
Leadership Commentary and Competitive Landscape
Commenting on the milestone, Co-founder and CEO Sahil Barua said October marked Delhivery’s second consecutive month surpassing 100 million transportation orders. He highlighted that Phase 2 festive volumes exceeded Phase 1, an unprecedented achievement for the company.
Delhivery competes with major logistics and e-commerce players such as Ecom Express, XpressBees, Shiprocket, Blue Dart, DTDC, and Shadowfax. Shadowfax, for instance, processed 436.36 million orders in FY25 and reported a CAGR of 29.77 percent from FY23.

Amazon India reported 2.76 billion customer visits during its Great Indian Festival, while Flipkart saw a 21 percent increase in traffic during its Big Billion Days sale. Meesho emerged as the largest e-commerce platform by annual transacting users and volume, processing 1.8 billion orders in FY25.
