Automated Messages

We get messages from the banks, IRCTC, telephone bills, ecommerce sites etc on order status, payments, POS transactions, reminders etc.

Generally these messages start with two letter combination which are like LM, TD, BA, AD, MM, MD, VM, BM, BZ, BP etc

One of my friends who works as a Consultant in Telecom Business told what is the significance of these two letters.

The first letters represent the Messaging Service Provider and the second letter represent the city.  

LM - Loop Mumbai
AD - Airtel Delhi
TD - Tata Docomo Delhi 

An elaborate list here http://goo.gl/QzYBZ

Both the messaging service provider and the message receiving network charge for each such message..
