Weight discrepancy charges are applied when there is a difference between the weight declared at the time of booking and the actual weight measured by the courier during processing. This can happen due to incorrect input, improper packaging details, or volumetric weight being higher than actual weight.

Couriers typically charge based on whichever is higher—actual weight or volumetric weight. If the shipment is found heavier or bulkier than declared, additional charges are added to cover the difference. These charges are usually reflected after shipment pickup or during transit verification.

To avoid such charges, it is important to accurately measure both the physical weight and dimensions (length, width, height) of your package before booking. Proper packaging and correct data entry help ensure transparent pricing and prevent unexpected cost increases.
