Learn about the latest BYOD policy for India Post delivery staff. Understand the revised smartphone and data reimbursement, eligibility, minimum requirements, and how to claim it smoothly.
The Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) scheme allows post office delivery staff to use their own smartphones for official delivery work and receive a monthly payment for using their devices.
✅ Delivery staff must process at least 90% of received articles through the mobile app to get the reimbursement under the BYOD scheme.
✅ The number of articles delivered will not be considered; only app processing is mandatory.
✅ Supervisors and staff should be informed to handle all accountable articles through the app to avoid payment issues.
The Integrated Mobile App (IMA) 2.0 will soon be rolled out under the IT Modernization Project 2.0, requiring phones with better specifications.
Minimum revised specifications for devices under the BYOD scheme are shared with divisions to ensure your device remains compatible.
Divisional Heads are directed to ensure timely payment under the BYOD scheme to encourage staff to continue using their devices and to motivate others to join the scheme.
Details of enrolled devices should be shared with the MO Division fortnightly in the prescribed format.
This helps the Postal Department improve delivery efficiency while ensuring staff receive fair support for using personal smartphones.
