BANGALORE, INDIA: Internet search giant Google India announced on Wednesday the launch of a newer version of its SMS Search service.

The search services allow users to SMS their query to 9-77-33-00000 at the cost of a regular SMS and get instant answers thus allowing users to search Google via text messages.

The new Google SMS Search service is available across all operators on both GSM and CDMA mobile phones across India, said a press release.

It claims that its new SMS-based search service works just like its internet search and can offer cricket scores, stock updates, Indian Railways train schedules, PNR (train ticket) status, horoscopes, movie show-times, latest news, flight status, weather information and facts and figures, it added.

The service would also work as a local business search, dictionary, calculator and currency converter.

"No longer do you need to remember complicated strings to put before your query, you can search as if you are searching on Google web search – we will do all the hard work to understand your query and give you the best results on SMS," Google India said.
