One of the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation officers was quoted as saying: According to the DMRC officer, e-tailers will offer their delivery options at some major Delhi metro stations. Among those, Huda City Centre, MG Road, GTB Nagar, Rajiv Chowk, Nehru Place, Dwarka Sector 9, Noida Sector 18, Vaishali, Laxmi Nagar and Kashmere Gate are going to be serviced. The aforementioned stations will house “Automated Parcel Delivery Terminals”. These terminals will offer you all the regular payment options – Cash on Delivery in addition to debit or credit card payments.

The way this will work is when you finalize your purchase online, you’ll be given an option to select any nearby DMRC station. Upon the confirmation of order, the e-commerce site will send a single-use One-time-password (OTP) on your registered mobile number, in addition to an email on your registered email address. At the time of pickup, you will have to quote this OTP which will be verified by the staff at the Parcel delivery terminals/kiosks. Finer details are not known yet, but reports suggest that this service will go live in February.
