Questions About Cheap India Calling

Do I need any special equipment to reach my team in India?

No. Intercalling is a softphone, so you and your team simply open a current web browser like Chrome, Firefox or Safari on a laptop or phone and start talking.

Is it legal to use VoIP for India?

Yes for international calls. India does regulate domestic VoIP-to-PSTN routing, known as toll bypass, but using a service like Intercalling to connect overseas offices with your Indian teams is fully within the rules.

Why do calls to India sound bad on some other providers?

Weak routing paths add latency on many networks. Intercalling favors routes with direct interconnects in Mumbai and Chennai, which cuts the number of hops and lowers jitter.

Can I pick up a local Indian phone number?

Virtual Indian numbers, or DIDs, are tightly regulated and demand strict KYC paperwork along with a registered business in India. You can, however, call into India straight away from any number we hand you.

Calling India: what to know

India answers on the country code +91, with the capital in New Delhi and most business concentrated around Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore. The working language for business is Hindi, English, 21 other scheduled languages, and local offices generally keep hours of 9:30 to 18:30 IST. Bangalore tech firms often have West-Coast US shifts running 18:00 to 04:00 IST.

Outbound calls on Intercalling need no phone number and no app. You place them from the browser, and you only add a US or Canada number when you also want to receive inbound calls.

Most mobiles in India sit on operators such as Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Idea (Vi). Indian mobile numbers are 10 digits starting with 6, 7, 8, or 9. Operators have been free to port across these prefix ranges since MNP, so prefix no longer reliably identifies the carrier.

India runs on UTC plus 5:30, and it does not observe daylight saving, so the time difference stays constant through the year.

How to dial India

  1. 1
    Start with the plus sign

    On a mobile, press and hold 0 to enter the plus sign. The plus sign works from any country, so you do not need to remember a local exit code.

  2. 2
    Enter the country code +91

    +91 routes the call to India.

  3. 3
    Add the local number

    Dial the destination number without its leading 0. For Mumbai that means including the area code 022.
