Guwahati is priced off DTDC Assam zone Z5 card, the furthest band we book into, on service code DNG. Air moves it in three to four days. Road takes nine to ten, and that difference matters more here than on any other route we handle.
This is the DTDC zone rate for Assam rather than a Guwahati-specific quote — the card is the same whether the parcel lands in Guwahati or in Jorhat. GST is inside the figures.

These are the DTDC rates for Assam (zone Z5) — the same card applies across the state. Billed weight is the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight (L × W × H ÷ 5000). Surface and heavier air slabs carry a 3 kg minimum. Full rate card and how billing works →
Assam sits in Z5, the outermost zone on our card, and Guwahati is priced from that state-wide row rather than a city rate of its own. Everything on this page applies equally to the rest of Assam.
The tier choice here is unusually stark. Standard runs three to four days by air. Surface runs nine to ten — it is a road haul across the whole subcontinent and then up the Siliguri corridor, and it behaves accordingly.
The slow option here is not automatically the cheap one, which catches people out. A single kilo costs ₹674 by Surface and only ₹553 by air, because Surface charges a 3 kg minimum. So for anything light, Surface is worse on both counts: dearer and roughly a week slower. The road option only starts repaying the wait around 5 kg, where it is ₹1,123 against ₹1,843, and at 10 kg where ₹2,247 sits against ₹3,400. Even then, ask yourself whether ten days is acceptable before you book it.
Premium is scheduled at three days against Standard three-to-four, so the gain is marginal for parcels. Note also that the Assam card tops Premium out at 25 kg — heavier air consignments are quoted per shipment.
One more quirk worth knowing: on the Assam card the Standard document scale has no 500 g row — at half a kilo the Premium document line is the only thing offered, at ₹496. Standard documents open at 1 kg instead, ₹553 against ₹813 on Premium. So a couple of sheets go Premium because nothing else exists at that weight; a real file goes Standard from a kilo up.
Because this is a state zone rate, the same pricing carries to district towns across Assam, not just the Guwahati pincodes.

Three to four days on Standard and three on Premium, both by air. Surface is nine to ten days because it goes the whole way overland.
It is the Assam zone rate, Z5. The same card applies to Dibrugarh, Silchar, Jorhat and the other district towns.
Not for a small parcel. At 1 kg Surface is ₹674 against ₹553 by air, so you pay more and wait about a week longer. It only pays off from roughly 5 kg.
From 1 kg upward, yes — the Standard document scale is ₹553 at a kilo and ₹1,014 at two. Below that there is no Standard row on the Assam card, so a 500 g envelope goes Premium at ₹496.
Premium is listed to 25 kg on this card. Above that we quote the shipment individually, so call with the weight and dimensions.
Yes. There is no collection charge at any weight, and we will bring packing material along.
On whichever is greater — the actual weight, or length × breadth × height in cm divided by 5000.
