India Post Office Search by Name: PIN Codes, Branch Type and District

postalpincode/post-office-search

Searches Indian post offices by branch name, such as a town, locality or office name, and returns each match with its six-digit PIN code, branch type (head, sub or branch office), delivery status, circle, division, region, district and state. Useful for finding the PIN code of a place when only its name is known. A name that matches nothing returns a validation error rather than an empty list. The API matches by prefix and has no result limit, so a broad name (a short, common start such as Pur or Ram) matches thousands of offices and returns megabytes; use a fuller place name. Data collected by the publisher from India Post and possibly not fully current; passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official India Post product.
