Where does the internet think you are? (Hint: often not where you actually are.)
IP geolocation is the process of mapping an IP address to a country, region, and city. It's how websites decide whether to show you the .in vs .com site, whether streaming services block you, and where 'visitor from' shows up in analytics.
In India, IP geolocation is often inaccurate because of CGNAT — many users share one IP that resolves to the ISP's home city, not yours.
Knowing this helps you debug why a service thinks you're somewhere else (and how to fix it).
CGNAT — your ISP is aggregating users into Mumbai for IPv4 efficiency. The IP geolocation database sees the Mumbai IP, doesn't know your real location.
Not via IP alone in India. Browser GPS (if you allow it) is the accurate alternative. IP is a rough hint only.
