(India) The weighing of goods.
An Indian English term for the act or process of weighing goods — standard in logistics, trade, and railway freight contexts across South Asia. Where British English would say 'weighing' or 'the weigh-in', Indian English formalised it into a noun with its own procedural weight (no pun intended). You'll find it on freight receipts, port documents, and commodity contracts throughout India.
(British, informal) Pretentious; posturing.
