Lorry Receipt (LR)
A lorry receipt (LR), also called a bilty, is the operational document for a road consignment — capturing consignor, consignee, stations, packages, freight type and charges.
Bilty
Bilty meaning in transport is the everyday Hindi and trade word for a lorry receipt (LR) — the consignment note transporters issue when booking freight.
PAID freight
PAID means freight is collected at booking time — typically from the consignor — rather than at delivery or on a later party invoice.
TO_PAY freight
TO PAY meaning in transport: freight is collected at delivery — usually from the consignee — when the goods are handed over, not at booking and not on a later party invoice.
TBB (To Be Billed)
TBB full form in transport is To Be Billed: freight is invoiced later to a billing party (often on credit) rather than collected fully at booking or delivery.
POD (Proof of Delivery)
Proof of delivery (POD) is evidence — photo, signature or document — that goods were delivered (or an undelivered reason was recorded).
OFD (Out for Delivery)
OFD full form in delivery is Out for Delivery: the stage after unload when consignments are assigned for last-mile delivery runs — not delivered, not POD, not auto-billable.
Crossing Hub
A crossing hub is a middle branch between origin and final destination. Goods unload there (At Crossing Hub), then re-outward to the final godown.
Carton Tracking
Carton tracking means each physical carton (box) is scanned at key steps — booking, outward, unload, OFD and delivery — with branch, user and time saved.
Consignor vs Consignee
The consignor is the party sending goods; the consignee is the party receiving them. Billing may be to either party or a separate billed-to account (common with TBB).
E-Way Bill
An e-way bill is the electronic permit required for movement of goods above threshold values under Indian GST rules — with validity tied to distance and movement.
Consolidated E-Way Bill
When one vehicle carries goods under many e-way bills, a consolidated e-way bill groups them under one number with shared vehicle and transport document (Part B) details.
HRMS for Transporters
Human resource management for transport companies — employee records, attendance, leave and payroll for office staff, drivers, loaders and delivery teams.
