These last 4 digits represent specific delivery routes within delivery areas. This extra detail means an even more precise matching to a more granular level. It could represent a handful of houses on one side of a street, or even a single building that receives a high volume of mail.

Also called ?plus-four codes?, ?add-on codes?, or ?add-ons?, the ZIP+4 code starts with the standard five-digit ZIP Code. The four extra numbers are added after a hyphen to complete the ZIP+4. So what do the extra numbers mean? These last 4 digits represent specific delivery routes within delivery areas.

India does not use a 5-digit zip code system. Instead, India uses a 6-digit postal code system known as PIN codes (Postal Index Number). PIN codes were introduced in India in 1972 to simplify the process of sorting and delivering mail.

The correct format for a numeric ZIP+4 code is five digits, a hyphen, and four digits. The first five digits represent the 5-digit ZIP Code; the sixth and seventh digits (the first two after the hyphen) identify an area known as a sector; the eighth and ninth digits identify a smaller area known as a segment.

The first two digits indicated the postal districts and the last two for the postal sectors. The six-digit postal code consists of two parts: the last two digits (sector code) of the old four-digit postal code, followed by four new digits representing the delivery point within the sector.

First digit reflects region in India, second the sub-region, third the sorting district, and last three represent the post office code. Thus the first 3 digits collectively indicates the postal district while the last 3 digits designates the specific post office within the district.
