India Post is offering a service to print and deliver business emails for customers.
The new scheme is about to be thrown open to small and big companies, which will be able to send business emails through the internet across the country. These emails will be printed and delivered by the postal department.
The companies would need to open a business account with the postal department free of cost. The payment for all the business done could be made at the end of the month, DoP general manager (Business Development) John Samuel told Business Standard.
The postal department would charge Rs 6 per page of email. It soft-launched the service in Kerala on 1 January, and would extend it to the rest of the country.
DoP would also offer a complete solution for business mails — from printing, packaging, post printing and delivery. It has set up two printing facilities in Delhi and Kolkata.
The companies would need to provide data for their business mails. The postal department would do the programming and prepare the layout, print, package and deliver the product.
The mails could include credit card statements, mobile phone bills and other marketing related information.
