What does Intra Circle Hubs (ICHs) mean in an Indian Speed Post?

Intra Circle Hubs (ICHs) are shipment sorting hubs for Indian Postal System – India Post

In 2013, India Post introduced Hub & Spoke mechanism for transmission of domestic Speed Post articles under Mail Network Optimization Project (MNOP). 105 major centers of the country were selected as Speed Post Hubs which were named as Intra Circle Hubs (ICHs).

ICHs are responsible to dispatch incoming shipments to its connected delivery post offices within the circle and on the same lines are responsible to dispatch outward shipments to within circle and outside circle National Sorting Hubs (NSHs).

India Post’s Speed Post Articles(SPAs) are more efficient and quicker. Articles are more efficiently sorted just by identifying the last 3 digits of the PIN codes or districts at Intra Circle Hubs (ICHs).

TMO in India Post means Transit Mail Office. It is a branch of RMS (Railway Mail Service) where closed bags are received and dispatched, sorting of letters is not done in this unit. Mail Agent or Mail Guard is in charge of this unit. This can function in number of sets depending upon requirements.

  • Indian Post office System is Unique one. One of the best services in the world. Persons from top to bottom are dedicated and hard working and sincere. Speed Post Service is one of the best Service. I always feel that all the employees must get more allowances. In some offices they work day and night.

    In my very younger days when just appeared for B.Sc (Hons.) I got a job as ED staff in 1976. Worked for one year and posted in Kashipur Head Post Office and worked as Registration Clerk. I had the privilege to see the system from inside and interacted with public and internal colleagues and senior officers. But later I joined higher studies and did Engineering and PhD and worked very senior positions in Central Government. But it is an excellent Department and serving to the Nation.
