Quick Answer
SMSGatewayHub delivers bulk SMS across Sikkim, from Gangtok and Namchi to Gyalshing and Mangan. Hotels, tour operators, organic producers and pharma units send OTPs on transactional (-T) headers, booking and shift updates on service (-S) headers and offers on promotional (-P) headers, using DLT templates in English or Nepali. SMS works where data is weak, WhatsApp and voice share the account, and billing is Pay As You Go for delivered SMS.

Start sending in Sikkim

Register as a Principal Entity
Sign up on an operator DLT portal with your PAN and business documents. We walk Sikkim businesses through DLT registration step by step.
Pick a 6-letter header
Register a recognisable sender ID; operators add the -T, -S or -P suffix based on the template category.

Measure every campaign
Check per-number delivery in live reports; if a template is rejected, the DLT error code list shows the fix.
Nepali and English SMS in Sikkim
Nepali is the most widely spoken language in Sikkim and is written in Devanagari, while English is used in offices and tourism. SMSGatewayHub sends Nepali as Unicode SMS with 70 characters per part and no extra language fee; English goes as standard 160-character SMS.
Sikkim also recognises Bhutia, Lepcha, Limbu and several other languages. Some have their own scripts that not every handset displays, so most senders use Nepali or English for wide reach and test on local phones before a large campaign.
