Pune STD Code 020
We can see an example of the Pune STD code in use by examining the full landline telephone number of Aga Palace.
In calls from India to the Aga Palace tourist support team the the STD code appears right at the beginning of the number: 020 - 2970 8575. However, if calling from abroad we need to drop the initial zero, replacing it with the +91 STD code for India. This makes the full number +91 20 2970 8575 for callers from outside of India.
