Landline telephone numbers refer
to fixed line phone numbers.
They normally consist of five to
eight digits depending on the
size and population of the city
or town in which they are taken.
Indian Government owned BSNL &
MTNL used to be the only
providers of telephony services
until the late nineties, when
private players started offering
fixed telephony along with
mobile telephony services.
Majority of fixed phone number
connection and service are still
being operated by BSNL and MTNL.
Of late there has been a rapid
shift from landline to mobile
telephony mainly due to
declining cost and better
service. Fixed landline service
customer base is shrinking day
by day and is rapidly loosing
market to Mobile telephone
service providers. Unlike Mobile
telephone service providers BSNL
and MTNL publish a telephone
directory every year which
contains the name and address of
each subscriber of their fixed
phone. Using this directory and
owner name and address of a
fixed phone number can be looked
upon. Landline number trace
service strives to offer the
same directory look up service
online. The number directory is
region specific and the same
telephone number can belong to
two different persons in two
different geographies. This area
or geography is defined by STD
code and in different STD code
locations the same number can be
offered to different persons, as
the STD code for them would be
different. Click on the name of
