Need helpp - parcel booked for pincode of an entirely different city

So I recently bought something and accidentally mistyped my pincode. The rest of my addresss is correct but the pincode is now headed for a different city in the different state (but it's a neighbouring state).

What do I do in this case? The parcel has been shipped and it's on the way right now. Will it be possible to ask the people at the post office to send it to the correct pincode code once it reaches its destination? Will I get a call from the post office? I'm not asking for customer support but I just want to know what kind of scenario can I expect.

I'm so confused, I admit it's entirely my fault for being so careless but the address I gave had all my city, district, and state info how is it possible it still got booked for the wrong pincode? I should've quadruple checked 😭

Website said ₹0 tarrif but the delivery man is asking for ₹3600

Hey guy, so as the title says, I have an eBay order coming in from china. It's a Xiaomi Tab Accessory (Focus Keyboard). The indian post website says ₹0 tarrif but the guy delivering called my dad and said he needs to pay ₹3600. Is this a scam? (Original Item Value $152)

Could Speed Post be delivered without being booked for tracking?

R5: Tracking screenshot of Speed Post not Booked

PS Update: Resolved/Delivered, The screenshot was made from using info from sms, turns out original receipt info is not same as sms received to acknowledge the same, checking the original receipt that i took camera shot had diferent info and i was able to track it, it says it was delivered successfully.

-Thank you for everyone responded to this post

Question:
Sent Speedpost more than a month ago but only now tracking online, shows up as not booked, could it be possibly delivered without being booked or not?

Recipient is an instituition hence I cannot verify delivery in reliable manner until its too late.

What are my options in this case?

Since when is electronic devices prohibited in international couriers. There’s no battery, I was trying to send a camera without battery to HongKong and had to go private. Since when we can’t send camera.

The way India post does it so well

Pic 1 shows how parcels were actually packed. Pic 2 and 3 give a sample of how they are received at my home being delivered by India Post. I mean its a government service, and is giving a affordable facility, but doesn't mean that the parcels are to be shredded.

Need help with tracking information

What does this mean?
Did it clear customs? Or is the package still being held at customs?
It’s literally just a bunch of letters I wrote for my gf, I sent them from the US to India. And the package has been sitting there for 2 days now without any update.
