IDEA

Haryana IDEA, operating in the Indian state of Haryana, is a mobile network provider utilizing the Mobile Country Code (MCC) 404, which identifies India, and the Mobile Network Code (MNC) 12. A key player in India's telecommunications landscape within the Asia & Middle East region, IDEA – now part of Vodafone Idea Limited (Vi) – served a significant subscriber base in Haryana. Understanding the network's operational specifics, including its MCC and MNC, is crucial for troubleshooting connectivity issues, configuring devices, and identifying network origin when roaming. Haryana, known for its agricultural significance and proximity to the national capital, presents unique challenges and opportunities for mobile network operators like IDEA. Historically, IDEA competed intensely with other major Indian telcos such as Airtel and Jio, focusing on providing voice and data services. Its coverage in Haryana extended from major urban centers like Gurgaon and Faridabad to more rural agricultural areas. The transition to Vodafone Idea signifies a pivotal shift, aimed at strengthening its market position by leveraging merged resources and infrastructure. The 404-12 identifier remains relevant, offering transparency to consumers and technicians alike, showcasing the networks' origins and facilitating seamless network management within the broader framework of India's telecommunications regulatory environment.
