Time to say goodbye to PIN codes; India's new digital system for accurate addressing: DigiPin.

The Department of Posts has launched "DIGIPIN," a new digital addressing system designed to provide more precise location identification across the country, replacing traditional PIN codes. DIGIPIN is a 10-digit code that helps pinpoint the exact location of every property.

Unlike conventional PIN codes that represent large areas, DIGIPIN marks the precise location of each house and building. This is expected to significantly improve the efficiency of delivery services, logistics, and emergency assistance. Online shoppers can provide their DIGIPIN on e-commerce platforms like Flipkart and Amazon to ensure fast and error-free deliveries.

To find your own DIGIPIN code, you can visit the official website of the Department of Posts at https://dac.indiapost.gov.in/mydigipin/home. Officials state that this platform allows you to easily find and use your 10-digit digital address. This new system is also a major step towards achieving the "Digital India" objective.
