There used to be a hackpad https://datameet.hackpad.com/PINCODE-Hell.-M4hPFJVV2Gm with a lot of pincode research which unfortunately seems to be lost.
Unique pincodes are assigned to an area that has substantial postal deliveries. A pincode area could be as small as a university with a single post office, or an entire district with multiple post offices. For each pincode, only one post office serves as the delivery office, where all post destined for the pincode lands, and is further routed to one of the non delivery post offices in the same pincode based on address. > And One Post office can serve multiple pincodes (I've heard this from Employees of the Postal Department, but haven't found an example of it) This is quite odd. Would be good to confirm this. -- Datameet is a community of Data Science enthusiasts in India.
