Does DataESIM include a local Indian (+91) phone number, which is often required for services like booking trains on IRCTC?

No, DataESIM is engineered as a data-only eSIM solution and does not provision a local Indian (+91) phone number. This is a critical distinction for users planning to interact with services that mandate a local number for SMS-based OTP (One-Time Password) verification, such as booking train tickets on IRCTC (Indian Railways). While DataESIM provides superior high-speed data for all internet-dependent applications—including Google Maps, Uber, WhatsApp, and remote work platforms—it will not fulfill requirements for a local voice or SMS number. Users needing a local number should consider an additional, separate solution for that specific functionality.
