Verified answers regarding the Indian postal index numbering system.
PIN stands for Postal Index Number. It is a 6-digit numeric code introduced by India Post on 15 August 1972 to simplify the sorting and delivery of mail across India.
An Indian PIN code has exactly 6 digits. The 1st digit indicates the postal region, the 2nd indicates the sub-region, the 3rd indicates the sorting district, and the last 3 digits represent the specific delivery post office.
