+91 in numbers — the scale behind the code
The facts you need before you dial the world's largest mobile market.
What is the country code for India?
India's country code is +91 — a single ITU allocation under the E.164 plan, regulated by TRAI and the Department of Telecommunications. More international calls are placed to India than to almost any other country on earth.
Behind +91: 1.46 billion people, 1.15 billion+ mobile subscribers, the world's largest outsourcing economy and a 32-million diaspora — all routed through one two-digit prefix.
All four mean the same thing — they connect your call to India.
How to call India from anywhere
Every pattern is: exit code + 91 + the number without its leading 0.

En Inde : les mobiles comportent 10 chiffres commençant le 6/7/8/9. Ajouter un interligne 0 pour tout appel fixe longue distance et pour le fixe vers mobile (obligatoire depuis la règle TRAI 2021).
Explication du format du numéro de téléphone en Inde
Les mobiles indiens comportent 10 chiffres (après +91) commençant par 6, 7, 8 ou 9 à 11 chiffres en Inde avec le 0 en tête. Les lignes fixes utilisent un code STD plus un abonné.
Mobile
- À l'intérieur de l'Inde
- 0 + numéro à 10 chiffres → 0 98765 43210
- International
- +91 + numéro à 10 chiffres → +91 98765 43210
Les mobiles commencent par 6, 7, 8 or 9. Le premier 0 n’est utilisé qu’en Inde (obligatoire depuis les lignes fixes depuis 2021).
Téléphone fixe (STD)
- À l'intérieur de l'Inde
- Code STD + abonné → 022 XXXX XXXX
- International
- +91 + STD (non 0) + abonné → +91 22 XXXX XXXX
Les métros utilisent les codes 0X1 (Delhi 011, Mumbai 022) ; villes de niveau 2 à 3 chiffres ; petites villes 4 chiffres.
Le paysage des opérateurs mobiles en Inde
Un duopole efficace entre Jio et Airtel, avec Vi et l'entreprise publique BSNL derrière. La portabilité des numéros est en vigueur depuis 2011, le préfixe est donc un point de départ et non une confirmation.

Codes STD pour les villes indiennes
Les lignes fixes utilisent le code STD + abonné. Format international : +91 + code STD (sans le 0 initial) + abonné.
| Ville | État/Région | Code MST |
|---|---|---|
| Delhi / New Delhi | RCN de Delhi | 011 |
| Mumbai | Maharashtra | 022 |
| Calcutta | Bengale occidental | 033 |
| Chennai | Tamil Nadu | 044 |
| Bangalore (Bangalore) | Karnataka | 080 |
| Hyderâbâd | Télangana | 040 |
| Puné | Maharashtra | 020 |
| Ahmedabad | Gujarat | 079 |
| Jaïpur | Rajasthan | 0141 |
| Lucknow | Uttar Pradesh | 0522 |
| Chandigarh | Pendjab / Haryana | 0172 |
| Cochin | Kérala | 0484 |
Les quatre métros d'origine (Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai) utilisent les codes 0X1. Supprimez le premier 0 lorsque vous appelez depuis l'étranger - par ex. Mumbai 022 devient +91 22.
Heure normale de l'Inde - IST (UTC +5:30)
L’Inde utilise l’IST toute l’année – un décalage d’une demi-heure unique parmi les grandes économies, sans heure d’été. Voir l'horloge en direct en haut de cette page.
Meilleures fenêtres d'appel : La soirée en Inde (18h-21h IST) chevauche la matinée aux États-Unis – le changement classique de BPO. Pour l’Europe, l’après-midi indien correspond au matin européen.
Numéros d'urgence en Inde
Appelez gratuitement depuis n’importe quel téléphone indien. Le 112 est la ligne d’urgence unifiée, en service depuis 2019.
Erreurs courantes lors des appels en Inde
Presque tous les appels internationaux échoués sont un problème de formatage et non un problème de réseau.
Garder le premier 0 sur le code STD
Composez le +91 22 XXXX XXXX pour Mumbai, et non le +91 022. Le 0 dans un code STD (011, 022, 080…) est le préfixe de la ligne nationale – supprimez-le lorsque vous appelez de l'étranger.
Oublier le 0 en Inde (règle TRAI 2021)
Depuis 2021, appeler un mobile depuis un fixe indien nécessite un 0 en tête (0 + mobile à 10 chiffres). Sans cela, l'appel échoue. Cela ne s'applique qu'à l'intérieur de l'Inde.
Dialing 91 without an exit code
From a US landline, “91 9X…” alone fails. You need 011 (or “+”) in front to flag the call as international.
Trusting the prefix to identify the carrier
Prefixes historically map to operators (Jio 70/76/77/6-series, Airtel 90/96/98/99…), but Mobile Number Portability — live since 2011 — has shuffled many. Treat it as a hint, not a confirmation.
Using the wrong exit code at home
Exit codes vary: 011 (US/Canada), 00 (UK/EU/most of the world), 0011 (Australia). When unsure, dial “+” from a mobile.
Tips to reduce the cost of calling India
Use a VoIP service
VoIP routes the call over the internet for most of the journey, so you pay local rates on the India end — far less than mobile-carrier international rates.
Get an India virtual number
If you call India often — for a BPO, support, or sales team — a +91 virtual number lets you receive calls at local rates and dial out with a local caller ID.
Mind the IST half-hour offset
India is UTC+5:30. The unusual half-hour offset trips up scheduling — New York is 10:30 behind, London 5:30 behind. Double-check call windows.
Compare per-minute rates
Rates into India vary widely between carriers, especially for high-volume outbound. A few minutes of comparison can save thousands at BPO scale.
Why businesses get an India virtual number
For BPOs, SaaS support desks and global sales teams, a local +91 caller ID gets answered where a foreign number gets ignored. An India DID is a real Indian number that rings on your existing system anywhere in the world.
Higher answer rates
A local +91 caller ID is answered far more often than an unfamiliar international number.
Lower trust friction
A Mumbai +91 22 or Bengaluru +91 80 number signals local presence without a physical office.
Cheaper inbound
Indian customers call a local number at local rates — no one rejects your calls for cost.
Built for BPO scale
Bulk DID provisioning via API across support, sales and collections teams.
Faster expansion
Launch an India customer line in a day instead of incorporating a local entity.
Real PSTN presence
A genuine Indian DID — Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru — that rings on your phone system worldwide.

India country code +91 — frequently asked questions.
What is the country code for India?expand_more
+91, assigned by the ITU under E.164. Dial it after your country's international exit code (011 from the US, 00 from the UK and most of the world).
How many digits is an Indian mobile number?expand_more
10 digits in international format (after +91), beginning with 6, 7, 8, or 9. With the domestic leading 0 it is 11 digits inside India.
What is the STD code for Mumbai?expand_more
022. International format: +91 22 + 8-digit subscriber number.
What is the STD code for Delhi?expand_more
011. International format: +91 11 + subscriber, covering New Delhi and the wider Delhi NCR area.
What is the STD code for Bengaluru?expand_more
080. From abroad, dial +91 80 + subscriber.
Why must I add a 0 before mobile numbers when calling from an Indian landline?expand_more
TRAI made the 0-prefix mandatory in 2021 for landline-to-mobile calls to free up additional numbering space. Without the leading 0 from a fixed line, the mobile call fails. This rule applies only inside India.
Can I tell which carrier an Indian mobile number is on?expand_more
Approximately. Prefixes historically map to operators (Jio 70/76/77/6-series, Airtel 90/96/98/99, Vi 70/78/98/99, BSNL 94/95/96), but Mobile Number Portability has shuffled many of them.
What time zone is India in?expand_more
IST (UTC +5:30), year-round, no daylight saving. The half-hour offset is unique among major economies.
Can a US or European business get an Indian phone number?expand_more
Yes. MCM provisions Indian DIDs in metros and tier-2 cities, forwarding to any endpoint — SIP trunk, softphone, mobile, or contact center.
Does MCM offer wholesale voice termination into India?expand_more
Yes. Three tiers: Basic CC from $0.003/min, Platinum CC from $0.005/min, Custom CLI on quote, with SIP interconnect for major softswitch platforms.
