India has about 29 states and more than 8200 cities and towns. Don’t you think it is important that all of these are easily identifiable? Well to solve this problem each district, village, town, and city in India has a unique postal code called a “PIN code,” this is a code in India Post’s system for numbering post offices and assigning postcodes. The primary goal of the Postal Index Number is that it assists in sending mail and distinguishing areas from one another.
Now, let’s understand more about how the PIN code is made different each time. The PIN code has six numbers. The first three numbers of a PIN denote a certain area of the country called a “sorting district.” Depending on the number of mail sent to that state, it may have one or more sorting districts. The fourth number is the route on which a sorting district’s delivery office is located. The last two numbers show the delivery office within the sorting district, which is the GPO or HO starting with the number 1.
Here you can find the pin codes for the state of Karnataka.
