What is Pin code, What is the full form of Pin code

The full form of PIN code is Postal Index Number Code, which is a six-digit number. A PIN code is used to identify any location so that any parcel or letter can be easily sent to the correct address. Because of the PIN code, it becomes easy to determine in which direction the letter or parcel should be routed and to which post office of which district and which state it should be delivered.

Each digit of the PIN code has special significance. The first digit of the PIN code indicates the major region of India where that address belongs. The first two digits together indicate the state or postal circle of that region. The third digit shows the large postal district within that state. The last three digits directly identify the post office for which the PIN code is entered by a person. Since many villages/towns/places fall under a single PIN code, the exact address of your village/office and your name are required.
