India's Tech-Enabled Logistics & On-Demand Delivery Platform
Shadowfax Tracking: Real-Time On-Demand Delivery Status
Shadowfax is India's leading technology-focused crowd-sourced logistics platform, powering e-commerce last-mile, hyperlocal, B2B surface transport, and quick commerce deliveries. Its service portfolio includes express parcels, returns, fulfilment and local delivery. Availability and delivery timing depend on the booked service, merchant and route.
Shadowfax distinguishes e-commerce and D2C delivery from hyperlocal and quick-commerce services, and also offers SME and personal courier services. The public tracking page requests an AWB number. Same-day, next-day and rapid local services are separate offerings; an ordinary e-commerce AWB does not itself promise a 30-minute delivery.

Understanding Shadowfax Status Codes
Below are typical status events you will see while tracking your Shadowfax order:
In Transit / Processing
Your shipment has been received at a distribution center (DC) facility and is being sorted for transport to the next hub or local delivery unit.
Out for Delivery
The package is with the local rider and is scheduled for a delivery attempt; completion today is not guaranteed. The rider's contact details might be shared via SMS.
Delivery Failed / RTO
An unsuccessful delivery attempt was made (due to customer unavailability, wrong address, etc.). If unresolved, the shipment gets returned to the origin (RTO).
Understanding these updates
Track91 provides live shipment status and real-time tracking updates through its carrier integrations. Results may be cached between updates, so check the carrier event timestamps when comparing progress. Track91 is independent of Shadowfax. For delivery instructions or help with a missing parcel, use the carrier's official support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Help with Shadowfax tracking, delays and deliveries. Select a question to read the answer.
Does every Shadowfax shipment use the quick-commerce delivery service?
No. Shadowfax offers separate e-commerce, hyperlocal and personal courier services. Check the delivery option and estimate shown by the merchant; the existence of a quick-commerce service does not change an ordinary parcel booking.
How do I track my Shadowfax package?
Input your Shadowfax AWB tracking number (e.g., SF1234567890SIN) into the tracking box above. Track91 displays available shipment events, which may be cached or delayed.
What does "RTO initiated" mean?
RTO stands for Return to Origin. This status indicates that the delivery could not be completed and the package is being shipped back to the seller, usually after an unsuccessful delivery attempt.
How long does Shadowfax take to deliver?
Delivery times depend on the service. Hyperlocal orders are delivered in minutes, while standard e-commerce shipments across India generally take 2-5 business days.
Can I modify my delivery address?
Address modifications can usually be requested through the platform where you purchased the item (e.g., Meesho, Nykaa) before the package is out for delivery.
What does a Shadowfax tracking number look like?
Track91 accepts AWBs beginning SF or R followed by 9-25 letters or digits. This is the input supported by our integration, rather than a claim that every Shadowfax reference has one fixed format. Copy the full number supplied by the sender.
What does "Out for Delivery" mean?
The package is with the local rider and is scheduled for a delivery attempt; completion today is not guaranteed. Shadowfax may share the rider contact details with you by SMS so you can coordinate the handover.
Why is my Shadowfax tracking not updating?
Scans are written as the shipment moves between distribution centers, so updates can lag a few hours while it is in transit. If the delivery estimate is missed or the latest event requests action, contact the marketplace you ordered from or Shadowfax support with your AWB number.
Can I track Shadowfax without a tracking number?
Track91 needs your AWB number to show live shipment status. You can retrieve it from the order details page of the marketplace you bought from (Meesho, Nykaa, and similar), from the SMS and email notifications Shadowfax sends on dispatch, or from the printed shipping label on the package.
Is Track91 affiliated with Shadowfax?
No. Track91 is an independent tracking tool that provides live shipment status and real-time tracking updates for your Shadowfax shipments. For redelivery, claims, or account issues, use the official Shadowfax website or the marketplace where you placed the order.
