what is the zip code of India?

Answer 1

India does not have Zip code, but has PIN code - Postal Index number.

Postal Index Number (PIN) or Zip code is a 6 digit code. There are 8 PIN regions in India. Understanding how PIN Code works is simple if you understand the following:

The first two digits of the PIN Code together indicates the sub region or one of the postal circles.

The first three digits of the PIN Code together indicates a sorting / revenue district.

The last three digits of the PIN Code refer to the delivery Post Office.

There are many ways to get the Pin codes for different locations. A hard copy directory can be purchased in "General Post Offices" - the main post offices in India. Another poster has given a link which will give you the number, if you know the post office name.

I am giving below a site, where you can search for pin codes by state, city or post office. I hope you find this useful.
