Tata Ace
Live rate at booking
Book Tata AceHosur Road is 25 km long. Tell us which part.
A booking that just says "Hosur Road" can mean a godown near Bommanahalli, a unit in Bommasandra Industrial Area, or a warehouse close to Chandapura. Those three pickups are up to an hour apart in daytime traffic. So the first thing we ask for a Tata 407 on rent in Hosur Road is the exact gate, a landmark and the loading time your people are ready. It sounds basic. It is also the most common reason a 407 reaches late.
TruckGuru books the 407 with driver for one consignment, going over 100 km to another city. We do not do deliveries inside Bangalore.
Loads that come off Hosur Road in a 407
Bommasandra and the Jigani side have a large number of auto component, precision engineering and pharma packaging units. Further in, around Kudlu Gate and Singasandra, there are distributors and building material dealers. The 2.5 ton size suits:
- Auto components and sub-assemblies going to vehicle plants and dealers in Tamil Nadu
- Pharma packaging and printed cartons for units in Puducherry and Chennai
- Tiles, sanitaryware and hardware stock for dealers in Salem and Dharmapuri
- Spare parts and consumables replenishing a branch office
The southern run
Almost everything from Hosur Road heads south or southeast, straight down NH 44 or across to Chennai.
- Dharmapuri, about 130 km: same-day delivery is possible if the truck loads early; otherwise next day
- Salem, about 170 km: same-day delivery is possible if the truck loads early; otherwise next day
- Tiruchirappalli, about 320 km: 1 day
- Chennai, about 330 km: 1 day
- Madurai, about 420 km: 1 day
A 407 leaving Bommasandra at 7 PM usually reaches Madurai by early morning with a driver break on the way. The same vehicle leaving at 4 PM loses time in evening traffic at Attibele and reaches later, not earlier. If your receiver is flexible, an evening dispatch is the better plan.
All of these are interstate, since the Tamil Nadu border is just past Attibele. The e-way bill is needed if the goods are worth more than 50,000 rupees, and it is generated by the consignor or consignee.
Is a 407 the right vehicle?
It is when the load is between roughly 1.2 and 2.5 ton and fits a compact deck. Below that, a Mini truck or Tata Ace at up to 1,100 kg is enough. Above it, a 14FT Eicher takes 3.5 ton and a 19FT Eicher 7 ton. For a full plant dispatch, a 32FT container. See the truck types for body options.
One practical warning: auto parts in returnable bins look light but often are not. Weigh one filled bin and multiply before you pick the size.
After you book
Enter pickup, drop, weight and date on the website or the TruckGuru app. We call back within 30 minutes in working hours to confirm. At loading you get a digital Lorry Receipt; the vehicle is GPS tracked through to delivery; the GST invoice follows after. Loading labour and transit insurance are arranged by you.
What sets the rate on this road
Truck freight rates are not fixed. What a load costs depends on the route, vehicle type, load capacity needed, cargo, pickup date and how many trucks are running that lane that week. Vehicles coming back to Bangalore from Tamil Nadu are common, so Salem and Chennai are usually matched fast; month-end dispatch rush at Bommasandra is when availability tightens.
TruckGuru pricing is quoted per trip at the time of booking, with toll included.
Current freight rates depend on route, vehicle type, cargo and availability. Check the live rate when booking.

About 2.5 ton. For more, go to a 14FT Eicher at 3.5 ton.
Is the vehicle only for my goods?
Yes. One consignment per vehicle, with no other goods mixed in.
Do I need an e-way bill for Salem?
Yes, if the goods are worth more than 50,000 rupees, since it is an interstate trip. The consignor or consignee generates it.
