Less Than Truck Load (LTL) road freight — also known as part load transport, shared truck transport or groupage freight in India — is the cost-efficient solution for businesses that need to move cargo across India without filling an entire truck. Your consignment is consolidated with other cargo heading in the same direction — you pay only for your share of the truck space. TTI Shipping & Logistics is a New Delhi based LTL freight provider coordinating shipments through a trusted pan-India road freight partner network.
LTL is ideal for regular smaller shipments — post-customs clearance inland delivery, inter-city distribution, factory-to-warehouse transfers and regular replenishment runs.

How is LTL Freight Priced
in India?
LTL road freight in India is charged per tonne or per CBM — whichever is greater. This is called the W/M basis — weight or measurement. The minimum chargeable weight on most LTL services is 100 kg.
| Weight Range | Rate Basis | Indicative Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100 kg – 500 kg | Per tonne | INR 3,000–6,000/tonne | Short haul — under 500 km |
| 100 kg – 500 kg | Per tonne | INR 5,000–10,000/tonne | Long haul — above 500 km |
| 500 kg – 5,000 kg | Per tonne | INR 2,500–5,000/tonne | Volume discount applies |
| Above 5,000 kg | Per tonne | INR 2,000–4,000/tonne | Near FTL rates apply |
Rates vary by route, cargo type and season. Contact TTI for a specific all-in quote for your shipment.

Questions Answered
What is LTL freight in India?
LTL — Less Than Truck Load — also called part load or shared truck transport in India — is road freight where your cargo shares a truck with other shippers' cargo. You pay only for the space your cargo occupies — making it significantly more cost-efficient than hiring a full truck for smaller shipments.
How is LTL freight pricing calculated in India?
LTL freight in India is priced per tonne or per CBM — whichever is greater. This is the W/M basis. For dense cargo — steel, machinery — weight determines the rate. For light bulky cargo — furniture, packaging materials — volumetric weight will be higher and determines the rate.
How long does LTL delivery take across India?
LTL transit adds 1 to 2 days compared to FTL due to consolidation and sorting. Delhi to Mumbai LTL takes 3 to 5 days. Mumbai to Bangalore takes 3 to 5 days. Chennai to Hyderabad takes 2 to 3 days. Short-haul routes under 500 km typically deliver in 1 to 2 days.
Is LTL safe for fragile goods?
Yes — when cargo is properly packed and marked as fragile. TTI advises on correct packing requirements for fragile goods in LTL shipments. For high-value fragile cargo — dedicated FTL transport is recommended to eliminate multi-handling at consolidation points.
LTL vs FTL — which is cheaper for India road freight?
LTL is cheaper for shipments below 10 tonnes — you pay per tonne rather than for the whole truck. FTL becomes cheaper above 10 to 12 tonnes where the per-tonne rate drops below LTL consolidation rates. TTI calculates both options and recommends the most cost-efficient solution for your specific shipment.
