Freight rates for the nine metric tonne pay load section for select destinations improved by Rs 1,000 at the local truck transport market in the national capital today following less availability of trucks in the market amid increased cargo movements.

Transporters said thin position of trucks against busy cargo movements mainly pushed up freight rates for some destinations.

Delhi to Pune, Kolkata, and Surat freight rates moved up by Rs 1,000 each to Rs 32,000, Rs 34,000 and Rs 29,000.

Rates to Patna, Hyderabad, Vijaywada and Mysore also

rose by Rs 1000 each to Rs 30,000, Rs 59,000, Rs 61,000 and Rs 67,000.
