How to use these codes
- From a mobile or a landline in India: dial the STD code with its 0, then the landline number. For Kharar that is 0160 and the number.
- From another country: dial +91, then the code without the 0, then the number: +91 160 and the number.
- Mobile numbers have no STD code. Dial the 10 digits as they are.
The STD code and the landline number together always make 10 digits, so a shorter code leaves room for a longer number. The shortest codes in this list: Kharar (0160), Ludhiana (0161), Bhatinda (0164), Chandigarh (0172), Patiala (0175).
This list keeps the grouping of the telecom numbering plan, which is why two states or territories share this page.
