To call India from the UK, dial +91 (or 00 91) followed by the 10-digit Indian mobile number, or +91 then the area code (without its leading 0) for a landline. Below is the exact format, worked examples, and the cheapest way to make the call.
From the UK, Indian numbers are dialled as:
+91 + the 10-digit mobile, or the area code (without its 0) plus the landline number
You can type +91 (works from any mobile) or the UK international exit code 0091. India's country code is 91.
Indian mobiles are 10 digits starting 6, 7, 8 or 9 (no leading 0). Just add +91:
