Let’s explore India’s address format in parts. The Indian address format for shipping or mailing addresses should be written as follows:

1. Addressee line - The recipient's full name, using appropriate titles (Mr., Mrs., Miss, Dr., etc.).
2. House or building number and street name - The building or house number should be written, followed by the street name. Leave out any separating commas or punctuation.
3. Dependant locality - This gets a line all to itself.
4. Double-dependent locality and postal code - If applicable, include the double-dependent locality here, followed by the postal code. Don’t include pesky commas here to separate the two.
5. Country - Write "IND" in all caps on the last line.
