Indian Virtual Phone Number
Get a local +91 number for India and route it anywhere — mobile, desk phone or IVR. No hardware, no local office required in most cases.
A Indian virtual phone number is a +91 number that is not tied to a physical phone line. Calls route over the internet to whichever device you choose, so your customers in India dial a local number while your team answers from anywhere.
Why use a Indian number?
India is a major market for both customer-facing lines and offshore operations centres serving other regions.
The practical benefit is answer rate. People are measurably more likely to answer, and to call back, a number that looks local to them than an international one — which is the whole reason this category exists.

Requirements and restrictions
Indian telecom regulation is strict on VoIP termination and number provision, and TRAI rules restrict some configurations that are routine elsewhere. Requirements here need checking case by case — we will tell you plainly if what you want is not permitted.
We would rather tell you a number is not available than take an order we cannot fulfil. Numbering rules differ substantially between countries, and a provider that claims every market is equally easy is not being straight with you.

Can I forward calls from my +91 number anywhere?
Yes. Calls to your Indian number can ring a mobile, a desk phone, a softphone or a full IVR menu anywhere in the world. The caller pays their normal domestic rate to reach you.
Can I send SMS from a Indian number?
SMS availability depends on the number type and local regulation, and it is not universal across markets. We confirm whether SMS is supported on the specific +91 range you are ordering rather than assuming it is.
Can I port an existing Indian number?
In most cases yes, and porting is free with Salamtalk. Portability depends on your current provider and the number type. Send us the number and we will confirm before you commit to anything.
