Integrating address verification based on pincode and vice versa for Indian Pincode

Question

We are working to create an address validator, and we were wondering if keeping the data on hand could become dated or require updating.

It would be preferable to include a long-lasting API. There are not many regularly updated resources.

I examined the links below.

All of them lack the most recent information and are outdated.

• https://pincode.net.in/194101

Also, there is not much on the documentation part -

•  Anyone who is already doing it in a better way than storing data to app local DB.

I tried the below link and the data I got from this link is outdated.

Answer 1

The other website you pointed to () receives information from Indian Post, making it the most trustworthy source of information.

https://api.postalpincode.in/

It works fine for most of the pin-codes however the recent split of J&K doesn't seem to be updated yet.

• https://api.postalpincode.in/pincode/400005 (Mumbai)
• https://api.postalpincode.in/pincode/110006 (Delhi)
• https://api.postalpincode.in/pincode/194101 (Leh)

The government sites' data usually take much longer to get updated.
