Overlay and Numbering Considerations
As of the latest telecom regulatory updates, there is no overlay code for the 2598 area. Subscribers in this region do not require 10-digit dialing for local calls within the same area code; however, for calls from other circles, the full national format (0-2598-XXXXX) is mandatory. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has mandated 10-digit numbering for all fixed-line and mobile services, and this area code conforms to that standard.
