 Typ: These divisions are 28 states (s) and 7 union territories (u).
 HASC: Hierarchical administrative subdivision codes.
 ISO: State codes from ISO 3166-2. For full identification in a global context, prefix " IN-" to the code (ex: IN-UL
represents Uttarakhand).
 FIPS: Codes from FIPS PUB 10-4.
 SC: State codes used by the Census of India.
 UPU: "Postal addressing systems" is a document available online from the Universal Postal Union. Its entry
for India has a list of states and codes. The codes are presumably official postal abbreviations for the states.
 Veh: Vehicle codes (first two characters on license plates).
 Dist: Number of districts in each division.
 Population: 2001-03-01 census, final figures.
 Area: Jammu and Kashmir includes areas claimed by Pakistan and China.
 PIN: Indian postal codes (postal index numbers) are six digits. They are sometimes written with a space
between the third and fourth digits. The first three digits generally determine a district. Ranges listed here
are the first two or three digits of the PIN. The newly formed states don't have well-defined ranges of PINs.
 Capital: Srinagar is the summer capital, and Jammu the winter capital, of Jammu and Kashmir.
