Send a parcel from Sikar to Gandhinagar. We pick up free.
Roughly 780 kilometres south-west via Jaipur and the Ahmedabad trunk — 2 working days surface via DTDC, next-morning on express if you book before noon. Pickup from your Sikar address (Shekhawati heritage belt and the city core) is free for parcels of 5 kg or more.
Pickup in Sikar, Ahmedabad trunk, Gandhinagar last-mile.
Pickup, Sikar.
Within 60–90 minutes of your call across the Shekhawati heritage belt — Subhash Chowk, Old City, Bajaj Road, Piprali Road and the Mayo-feeder villages around Khandela / Lakshmangarh. We bring tape, bubble wrap and a luggage scale.
Hub transit.
Same-evening handover to DTDC's Sikar facility, then road movement via Jaipur to the Ahmedabad hub overnight — Gandhinagar shares its trunk.
Gandhinagar last-mile.
Onward leg to Gandhinagar DTDC for sectoral sortation, then delivery to numbered Sectors, Sachivalaya and IIT-Gn Palaj — typically working day two for surface, next-morning for express.
POD on WhatsApp.
Once delivered, we forward the proof of delivery (signature image and stamp) on WhatsApp the same hour.

Shekhawati-NRI care kits, Sachivalaya files, IIT-Gn students.
Shekhawati-NRI care kits
Sikar's Shekhawati region has a deep, multi-generation Marwari diaspora across Gujarat — many Mayo-alumni and Mayo-feeder families now sit in Gujarati-Marwari business households and Gujarat civil-services / corporate roles. Care kits with sealed dry-sweets, hand-stitched textiles and seasonal home goods to the numbered Sectors. Surface is fine.
Sachivalaya / Vidhan Sabha papers
Sealed-cover originals to the Gujarat Secretariat, Vidhan Sabha and Sachivalaya — tender bids, court replies, departmental files. Sikar-side senior officers who served in Gujarat cadres still draw routine paperwork. Express only; we mark addressee, section and floor cleanly on the AWB.
IIT-Gn / DA-IICT student care kits
Care kits to the IIT-Gandhinagar Palaj campus and DA-IICT in July–August and again at exam time. Books, kitchen kits, winter clothes — usually a third cheaper than airline excess.
Mayo-alumni network shipments
Mayo Sikar-feeder alumni now resident in Gandhinagar receive recurring document and ceremony shipments — convocation invites, family-trust documents, alumni-association consolidations. Single GST invoice per slot.
Wedding shipments
Shekhawati-Gujarati weddings between the two cities. Photographer drives, decor returns, leftover favours — bulk pickup over an afternoon, single GST invoice.
Sector household replenishment
Households across the numbered sectors getting pickle, papad, dry sweets and hand-stitched textiles from Sikar kin. Surface routing keeps the rate honest.
A short, real list.
DTDC (and every air-network courier) prohibits these. Items most often misjudged on the Sikar → Gandhinagar lane:
Banned outright
- Liquids of any kind — perfumes, attars, oils, gels, hand sanitiser
- Aerosols and pressurised cans
- Cosmetics, nail polish, fragrance samples
- Flammable solids and matches
- Currency notes and gold/silver bullion
- Lithium batteries above 100 Wh on the air leg
Common Gandhinagar misjudgements
- Heritage-haveli paint / lacquer samples — Shekhawati restoration shippers occasionally include solvent-based paint with fresco swatches. Liquids cannot ship; pack the dry swatches only.
- GIFT-City / lab samples — chemical reagents and biological samples cannot ship by general courier.
- Cooking oils, ghee, pickles — semi-liquids; don't pack with regular parcels.
- Aerosol cans / spray bottles in care kits — pressurised, banned on the air leg.
AWB on WhatsApp. Track on dtdc.in. POD when it lands.
The moment the parcel is booked into DTDC, we send you the AWB number on WhatsApp. Type it into the public tracker at dtdc.in any time. When delivery happens we forward the POD — signed slip or photo — within the hour.
Specific to Sikar → Gandhinagar.
Can a parcel from Sikar reach Sachivalaya / Sectors 1–30 the same evening if booked before 10 AM?
On express, often yes — the air leg moves Sikar → Ahmedabad overnight via Jaipur and lands at Gandhinagar DTDC the next morning, with last-mile to the Sachivalaya and the inner numbered sectors by mid-afternoon. Booked after noon, expect next-morning delivery instead. For the Mayo-alumni-officer network in Gandhinagar's senior bureaucracy, a same-day booking before 10 AM is the routine call.
I have a sealed-cover bid / family-trust original for the Sachivalaya — how do you handle it?
Express only on this lane. We pick up, double-seal at your address, mark department / section / floor on the AWB, and route through DTDC's Gandhinagar branch — they have routine experience with secretariat addressees and know the entry-pass protocols. Always carry a digital backup; a sealed-cover original cannot be reproduced if anything goes wrong.
Care kit to an IIT-Gandhinagar Palaj student — what does that look like?
Routine pattern. The Palaj campus has a central mailroom; we mark hostel, room number, student name and roll number on the AWB. Surface gets there in two working days, express next-morning. For the July–August moving rush we do consolidated bookings (multiple boxes for one student, one invoice). DA-IICT and NIFT-Gandhinagar work the same way.
Tell us the rough weight. We'll come back in minutes.
