A few recent updates which were made live recently -
1. SR secure -
Secure High-Value Shipments
Now the seller can secure your high-value shipments at the time of order creation as well.
The seller can easily secure the shipment while creating an order if its value is more than Rs. 5,000, and the seller wishes to secure that particular shipment instead of all. In case the shipment is stolen, lost, or damaged in transit and the seller has opted for the shipment security, the seller will be eligible for a refund of up to Rs. 25,00,000.
Steps to opt for SR secure -
Step 1: Log in to the Shiprocket account and go to Orders → Create Orders.
Step 2: Create an order by entering buyer details.
Step 3: When entering order details, click on Yes, secure my Shipment under the Secure the Shipment heading.
Step 4: Choose pickup address and enter package weight.
Step 5: Fulfill all other details under the Other Details tab and click Add Order.
2. Add RTO option -
The seller can enter a different RTO address than the pickup address right from the mobile App. The seller can choose the existing address or add a new address (warehouse address) to receive the RTO shipments.
Steps to add RTO address -
Step 1: Log in to your account and go to More → Settings.
Step 2: Go to Pickup addresses and select the address against which you wish to add a new RTO address.
Step 3: Scroll down and tick the box Use Different Address as RTO address.
Next, the seller can either select a pre-existing address or add a new address.
3. Raise a Delivery Dispute for the Shipments Without asking for POD -
Now the seller can raise a delivery dispute with SR without asking for POD.

Steps to raise the dispute -
Step 1: Log in to your account.
