What does a Delivery Executive do?

Picks up and delivers parcels, food or groceries to customers on time, collects cash or confirms digital payment, and handles returns. Works with hub or store supervisors, dispatch teams and customers, usually on a two-wheeler.

A typical day: You log in at the hub or on the app, collect your assigned parcels or orders and plan the route. Through the shift you deliver, take OTPs or payments and handle calls when customers are not available. At the end you deposit cash, return undelivered items and check your payouts for the day.

How people get in: Usually 10th or 12th pass with a valid two-wheeler driving licence, smartphone and Aadhaar/PAN; own vehicle is often required.
