What is NDR (Non-Delivery Report)?

An NDR, or non-delivery report, is the status a courier raises when a delivery attempt fails, for example because the customer was unreachable, the address was incomplete or the parcel was refused.

Also called: non-delivery report, failed delivery, undelivered shipment

In Indian ecommerce, NDRs are logged by courier partners and shipping aggregators with a reason code, and the brand usually has only a short window, often a day or two, to act before the next attempt or a return is triggered. Many NDR reasons, such as 'customer not available' or 'address incomplete', can be fixed with a quick call: a new time slot, a landmark, an alternate number. NDRs left unactioned become RTOs.

Why it matters

NDR resolution is the last chance to save an order before it turns into a return, so speed matters more than anything else, and calling every NDR within hours is hard for a small support team during sale season. An AI voice agent can call each NDR customer, capture the corrected address or preferred slot as fields, and push it back through a webhook. Outpero is built for exactly that call-and-capture pattern.
