New Delhi, April 20, 2026: The Department of Posts has reported a historic revenue milestone of ₹15,296 crore in the financial year 2025–26, registering a 16 percent year on year growth as it continues its shift towards becoming a logistics and citizen centric service provider.

The performance review meeting was chaired by Union Minister of Communications and Development of North Eastern Region Jyotiraditya Scindia, who assessed the department’s annual performance and outlined priorities for the next financial year.

The meeting noted that India Post is increasingly positioning itself as a hybrid logistics network, combining traditional postal services with modern express delivery capabilities to meet evolving market needs.
