Door-to-door pet transport between Bangalore and Delhi, with the mode chosen for your pet's breed, age and the season, not for our convenience.
The short answer
Pet relocation from Bengaluru to Delhi NCR takes about 3 hours by air or 34–40 hours by escorted train, and typically costs ₹26,000–₹48,000 door-to-door. Air is the default for most healthy dogs and cats; snub-nosed breeds and seniors go by escorted rail.
This is the corridor where dog size decides everything. A Labrador or Golden Retriever flies as manifest cargo out of BLR at ₹26,000–₹48,000, and the crate's volumetric weight, not your dog's body weight, is what sets the price. Giant breeds sometimes exceed what a narrow-body hold will take, in which case we book a wide-body sector rather than splitting the journey.
Cats have the easier time of it on this 2,150 km run. A smaller crate means materially lower freight, and where the carrier permits in-cabin carriage the Delhi arrival temperature ceiling stops applying at all. Which on this corridor between April and July is the single biggest scheduling constraint removed.
Pet transport from Bangalore to Delhi costs ₹22,000–₹48,000 door to door depending on the mode you choose. Here is every option side by side.
| Mode | Duration | Typical cost |
|---|---|---|
| Air | ~3 hrs flight, same-day door to door | ₹26,000 – ₹48,000 |
| Escorted train | 34–40 hrs | ₹22,000 – ₹34,000 |
| Road | 40–48 hrs with halts | ₹48,000 + |
Crate, freight, veterinary certificate, permits, both transfer legs and GST appear as separate lines on your quote. If it is not on the sheet, you do not pay it.
On this corridor we usually recommend air (checked excess baggage or cargo). Here's why, mode by mode.
~3 hrs flight, same-day door to door · ₹26,000 – ₹48,000
Non-stop BLR–DEL sectors, early morning preferred in summer.
34–40 hrs · ₹22,000 – ₹34,000
Rajdhani-class routes need 1A coupé booking; brake-van options exist on other trains.
40–48 hrs with halts · ₹48,000 +
Only recommended for pets who cannot travel by air or rail.
Airlines on this sector
IndiGo, Air India and Akasa all operate BLR–DEL non-stop; live-animal acceptance varies by carrier and aircraft.
Trains on this route
Rajdhani-class services from KSR Bengaluru City require a full 1A coupé; other Mail/Express services carry an SLR dog box.
The difference is who does the driving and the paperwork. Here is what each means on Bangalore to Delhi specifically.
We collect in Bengaluru, crate at home, drive the 40 km to the Menzies Bobba terminal, hand over, and a second handler receives at DEL and delivers anywhere in NCR. On a corridor whose compliant summer slot is a pre-dawn departure, this is the difference between a plan and a 4am problem.
You deliver to BLR cargo and someone collects at DEL. It saves roughly ₹5,000–₹8,000 and requires a reliable receiving contact in Delhi, since a pet landing at 7am unmet sits in a terminal. Workable if you are on the same flight; otherwise the saving is smaller than the risk.
Generic advice gets pets stuck at counters. These are the things that actually bite on this corridor.
A compliant summer arrival at DEL means landing before 8am, which on a 3-hour sector means leaving Bengaluru around 4am, which with a 90-minute buffer from South Bengaluru means a pickup around 11pm. People are consistently surprised by this. We quote it up front.
Delhi fog cancels morning arrivals with very little notice between late December and January. Every winter move on this corridor carries a contingency date so a cancellation moves the travel day rather than stranding a crated animal at a terminal.
NCR is five cities in traffic terms. A delivery to Faridabad and a delivery to Greater Noida are ninety minutes apart, and we need the actual address, tower and a reachable number before departure rather than after landing.
We do not fly snub-nosed breeds on this corridor between March and October. Delhi's arrival ceiling for brachycephalic animals is lower than for other dogs and DEL breaches it for most of the day; Air India refuses them in the hold outright year-round. Escorted rail from KSR Bengaluru City is 34–40 hours and it is the right answer for a Pug, Bulldog or Persian cat here.
Read the full brachycephalic guideA corridor has two ends, and both of them have weather. These are the windows that actually close.
What bites: The problem is the Delhi end, not Bengaluru. Arrivals into DEL through the middle of the day hit the heat ceiling even when departure conditions are perfect.
What we do: We book landings before 8am or after sunset, which on a 3-hour sector means a pre-dawn departure from BLR.
What bites: Delhi fog delays or cancels morning arrivals, and a pet already accepted into cargo at Bengaluru is badly placed to absorb that.
What we do: Late-morning arrivals through the fog window, plus a contingency date so a cancellation moves the travel day rather than stranding your pet.
Kempegowda International (BLR) · KSR Bengaluru City / Yesvantpur
BLR sits about 40 km north of the city. A pickup in HSR or Electronic City needs 90 minutes of buffer before we even join the airport road.
Arriving inIndira Gandhi International (DEL) · New Delhi / Hazrat Nizamuddin / Anand Vihar
India's busiest quarantine station, and the reason most international pet moves in North India stage through Delhi regardless of where the pet actually lives.
Going the other way?Same distance, different scheduling. We publish that corridor separately because the constraints are not the same in reverse.
Pet transport Delhi → BangaloreThree things that are true on this corridor specifically, not three things every pet transport company in India claims.
Our highest-volume long-haul corridor, so crate stock in the common size classes is usually on hand at the Bengaluru end and a two-week domestic move is genuinely realistic.
We plan against Delhi's arrival ceiling rather than Bengaluru's departure conditions, which is the mistake that gets pets refused at the far end.
Contingency dates are standard on every winter booking here, not an upsell.
₹26,000–₹48,000 door to door by air, or ₹22,000–₹34,000 by escorted train. The spread is driven mainly by crate size rather than your pet's weight: a Labrador and a Great Dane pay very differently because volumetric weight is what the airline charges on. Every quote itemises crate, freight, vet, permits, both transfer legs and GST.
