Weight Calculation by Logistics Partner
An important part of Customer Satisfaction is the product packages that are
delivered to customers. Logistics Partners, who actually provide this delivery,
charge for fulfilment based on Volumetric Weight of the Packaged Product. This is
calculated in mainly two slabs:
a. Below 5 Kg Slab Volumetric weight is calculated as:
length*breadth*height (in cm)/5000 = = Volumetric Weight in kilograms
b. 5 Kg and Above Slab Volumetric weight is calculated as:
{length*breadth*height (in cm)/27000}*S = = Volumetric Weight in kilograms
here S is the CBM factor that varies with industry (for ShopClues the CBM factor is 8)
When considering weight of the product for shipment, the actual weight is
compared to the volumetric weight of the product, and the higher is chosen
