Overlay and Numbering Considerations
Currently, there is no overlay code for this area; 2325 is the sole geographic code for the Kagal/Murgud exchange. Subscriber numbers are typically 5 digits long, making the total length of a local number 10 digits (including the trunk prefix 0).

Practical Guidance for Callers
When placing a call to Kagal/Murgud, verify the subscriber number length. If you encounter a number with fewer digits, it may be an older format; however, the current standard is 5 digits after the area code. For businesses or individuals in the region, it is advisable to display the number in international format (+91 2325 XXXXX) on websites and global directories to avoid confusion for overseas callers. Local callers should always use the 0 prefix before the area code when dialing from within India.
