India Post launched the DigiPIN (Digital Postal Index Number) system under the Department of Posts, Ministry of Communications, for digital address identification.
DigiPIN is a 10-digit geo-coded digital address system linked with latitude and longitude for precise location mapping and delivery.
It improves address accuracy in postal services through fine location-based digital mapping.
The system is integrated with India Post for mail delivery, tracking, last-mile connectivity, and emergency services support.
DigiPIN is developed in collaboration with IIT Hyderabad and National Remote Sensing Centre (ISRO) and works alongside the traditional 6-digit PIN code system introduced in 1972.
