Here you have to give location access of your device, so that DigiPin can be created based on your exact location.

After giving location permission, your Digipin will be generated, which you can use for emergency services, logistics, courier delivery and even for booking cabs.

According to India Post, IIT Hyderabad, NRSC and ISRO have played an important role in preparing DIGIPIN. Due to them, it became easy to generate Digipin of precise location of home, office, institution etc. in a grid of 4mx4m. Each grid was given a unique alphanumeric 10 character PIN code, which was based on the coordinates of that location. This DIGIPIN will be completely different from the existing PIN codes.

How different is it from the PIN code?

The existing PIN codes are made on the basis of a large area, whereas precise location has been kept in Digipin. All the post offices in India have 6 digit PIN codes, whereas DigiPin will have 10 characters, which will be a mix of alphabets and numbers. It is precise, which makes it easy to find the location. The special thing about this digital PIN code is that it can be used offline as well.
