Estimates only, based on the numbers and improvement assumptions you entered. Prepaid orders are assumed to deliver, and returned stock is assumed to be resellable — so a real month is unlikely to be better than this.
The controls that act on this
Where your COD money is leaking
Your current numbers show where COD is costing your store the most.
RTO loss
₹54,740
Freight both ways, packaging, and the ad spend that won the order.
Cancelled COD orders
₹10,080
Ad spend on orders killed before they ever shipped.
Other COD costs
₹8,694
The courier's fee for collecting cash on orders that did deliver.
The first two are the ₹64,820 of wasted spend above. The collection fee is what COD costs even when the order works, so it is shown separately rather than counted as a loss.

This calculator does not estimate a rupee value for COD rules. They reduce how much risky COD you take on, which changes the inputs above rather than the outputs.
