A Postal Index Number or PIN or PIN CODE is a code in the post office numbering or post code system used by India Post. The code is six digits long.
There are nine PIN zones in India, including eight regional zones and one functional zone (for the Indian Army). The first digit of the PIN code indicates the region. 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 zones cover the Indian states and union territories as follows:
1 - DELHI, HARYANA, PUNJAB, HIMACHAL PRADESH, JAMMU AND KASHMIR, CHANDIGARH
2 - Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand
3 - RAJASTHAN, GUJARAT, DAMAN AND DIU, DADRA AND NAGAR HAVELI

8 - BIHAR, JHARKHAND
9 - Army Post office (APO) and Field Post office (FPO)
Delivery office The last two digits represent the delivery office within the sorting district starting from 01 which would be the GPO or HO. The numbering of the delivery office is done chronologically with higher numbers assigned to newer delivery offices. If the volume of mails handled at a delivery office is too large, a new delivery office is created and the next available PIN is assigned.Thus two delivery offices situated next to each other will only have the first four digits in common.
