According to the NCB press release, the package was shipped to India from the US on August 31.

The necessary digital evidence was also seized. He admitted that he used to import these packages on a regular basis for the last year and a half for himself and to later distribute to his friends.
He used to order the drugs from the United States through Instagram or Wickr and the payments were made through bitcoins.
