**Tambaram Postal Division to Suspend Transactions August 4 for Technology Upgrade**
CHENNAI, July 25, 2025 – Post offices within the Tambaram postal division will cease all transactions on August 4th to facilitate the implementation of “Advanced Postal Technology 2.0” (APT 2.0), a new digital platform. The Department of Posts announced the upgrade, which will go live on August 5th, and requires a one-day downtime for data migration and system configuration.
According to a press release, the APT application is designed to provide an improved user experience, quicker service, and a more customer-centric interface. Postal customers are advised to plan their visits accordingly, as no services will be available on August 4th. The Department of Posts expects the transition to be seamless, ensuring uninterrupted operation of the upgraded system from August 5th onwards.
