The sequence of digits required to reach a telephone subscriber in India’s financial capital comprises a country code, a city-specific code, and the subscriber’s individual number. For example, to dial a landline number in the city from abroad, one would typically dial +91 (India’s country code), followed by 22, and then the eight-digit local number.
This system ensures efficient routing of telephone calls across the vast Indian telecommunications network. Its implementation has evolved alongside the growth of telecommunications infrastructure, adapting to accommodate increasing subscriber numbers and technological advancements. Clear and universally understood dialing conventions are essential for seamless international and domestic communication.
