  1. India doesn't have ZIP codes but PIN codes. The USA has ZIP codes.

    A Postal Index Number or PIN or Pincode is the post office numbering or post code system used by the Indian Postal Service. PIN stands for Postal Index Number and the code is 6 digits long. The PIN was introduced on August 15, 1972.

    There are 8 PIN regions in India. The first digit of the PIN code indicates the region in which a given post office falls in. The second digit indicates the sub-region, and the third digit indicates the sorting district within the region. The final three digits are assigned to individual post offices.

    The 9 PIN regions cover the Indian states and union territories as:

    1 - Delhi, Haryana, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Chandigarh

    2 - Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand

    3 - Rajasthan, Gujarat, Daman and Diu, Dadra & Nagar Haveli

    4 - Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Goa

    5 - Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Yanam (district of Puducherry)

    6 - Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Puducherry (except Yanam), Lakshadweep

    7 - West Bengal, Orissa, Assam, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, Meghalaya, Andaman & Nicobar Islands

    8 - Bihar, Jharkhand

    9 - Army Post office(APO) and Field Post office(FPO)

    First 2 Digits of PIN and related Postal Circle are:

    11 Delhi

    12 and 13 Haryana

    14 to 16 Punjab

    17 Himachal Pradesh

    18 to 19 Jammu & Kashmir

    20 to 28 Uttar Pradesh

    30 to 34 Rajasthan

    36 to 39 Gujarat

    40 to 44 Maharastra

    45 to 49 Madhya Pradesh

    50 to 53 Andhra Pradesh

    56 to 59 Karnataka

    60 to 64 Tamil Nadu

    67 to 69 Kerala

    70 to 74 West Bengal

    75 to 77 Orissa

    The ZIP code is the system of postal codes used by the United States Postal Service (USPS). The letters ZIP, an acronym for Zone Improvement Plan, are written properly in capital letters and were chosen to suggest that the mail travels more efficiently, and therefore more quickly, when senders use it. The basic format consists of five numerical digits. An extended ZIP + 4 code includes the five digits of the ZIP code, a hyphen and then four more digits, which enables a piece of mail to be directed to a more precise location than by the ZIP code alone. The term ZIP Code was originally registered as a servicemark (a type of trademark) by the U.S. Postal Service but its registration has since expired.
