Stamps of India

Every stamp issued since 1947. Filter the catalogue, tick off what you own, and build your checklist.

How albums work

Start one

  1. On the catalogue, choose filters: a theme, a type, years or a search.
  2. Choose "Create an album", give it a name and save.
  3. Make as many albums as you like, such as one for Railways, one for the 1960s and one for Miniature sheets. A stamp can be in more than one.

Keep track of your progress

  • Tick the + on any stamp to mark it as yours. Every album it belongs to moves on at once.
  • My collection shows each album with a bar, such as "38 of 53".
  • "Missing" lists only the stamps you don't have. For a paper copy to take to a fair, choose "Print" in the album's ⋯ menu.
  • New stamps that match are added on their own, so a finished album reopens when India Post issues another.

Change which stamps it holds

  1. In My collection, open the album's ⋯ menu and choose "Change stamps".
  2. The catalogue opens with its filters. Add or remove a theme, type, years or search.
  3. A bar shows how many stamps the new filters match. Choose "Save to this album", or "Undo changes".

Rename, delete and privacy

  • Rename or delete it from the same ⋯ menu. Deleting an album never removes the stamps you've ticked.
  • When "Show my collection on my profile" is on (in My collection), other collectors see the stamps you own and your albums' progress. Hide one album from its ⋯ menu, or turn the switch off to keep everything private.

Create an album

An album is a list of stamps you want to collect. Mark the ones you have, and it shows you what's left. Make as many as you like to organise your collection, for example one per theme, decade or stamp type.

Your album will have 28 stamps Chosen filters: Years: 1947–1949
  • See what you still need One tap shows only the stamps you don't have yet. Handy at a stamp fair.
  • See how far you've got For example "38 of 53". It goes up each time you mark a stamp as yours.
  • New stamps are added for you When a new stamp matches, it joins your album.

Tip: smaller albums are easier to finish, like "Railways" or "Stamps from the 1960s". You can change it later.

Albums are free. Sign in or create an account to save this one.
