• 🗂️ Category path: category place each company in justdial.com's own category tree.
• 🔍 Keyword search: search justdial.com by keyword with the query input, in the place you name in location.
• 🔗 Paste-mode: paste justdial.com URLs into startUrls to scrape exactly the pages you picked in the browser.

What data can you extract from justdial.com?

Each result includes Core company fields (business_name, category, location, address, area, rating, review_count, and total_jd_reviews, and more), extended fields (detailFetched), and contact information (phone and email). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as null, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned.

Input

The main inputs are a search keyword, an optional location filter, and a result limit. Additional filters and options are available in the input schema.

Key parameters:

• query — What to look for — a category ("Restaurants", "Dentists", "Gyms") or a business name. Required if no startUrls provided. Use a JSON array for several searches, e.g. ["Restaurants","Cafes"].
• location — Indian city to search, e.g. "Mumbai" — or narrow it to an area with "Mumbai, Andheri West". The city is required. Use a JSON array for several cities, e.g. ["Mumbai","Pune"].
• maxResults — Maximum total results (0 = unlimited). (default: 100)
• maxPages — Stop each search after this many result pages (about 10 businesses per page). Leave empty to page until Max Results is reached or the search runs out.
• startUrls — Paste justdial.com category pages (https://www.justdial.com/Mumbai/Restaurants/nct-10408936, or with an area: .../Restaurants-in-Andheri-West/nct-10408936) or search pages (https://www.justdial.com/Pune/search/Restaurants), or single business pages (any justdial.com link ending in _BZDET, e.g. https://www.justdial.com/Mumbai/Afzals-Mao-Restaurant-Mazgaon/022P870087_BZDET) - a business page returns that one business with its email, website, pincode, landmark, categories, opening hours, payment modes and year established. Each URL becomes its own search task; results are merged and deduped by listing ID across all URLs. When provided, startUrls REPLACE the query/location fields (each supported URL becomes one task; unsupported URLs are skipped, and if none is supported the run stops with an input error). (default: [])
• compact — Core fields only (for AI-agent/MCP workflows). (default: false)
• excludeEmptyFields — Drop null, empty-string, and empty-array fields from each record before push. Smaller payloads for AI agents and dashboards. (default: false)
• incrementalMode — Compare against previous run state. stateKey is optional — defaults to a value derived from search inputs (queries, cities, startUrls) so different searches never share state. (default: false)
• stateKey — Optional. Stable identifier for the tracked search universe. Leave empty to auto-generate from search inputs.
• skipReposts — When incremental, skip listings whose content matches an expired listing from a prior run (cross-run duplicate detection). (default: false)
• emitUnchanged — When incremental mode is on, also emit listings whose content has not changed since the last run. (default: false)
• emitExpired — When incremental mode is on, also emit listings that were seen before but are no longer found. (default: false)
• ...and 13 more parameters

Input examples

Basic search — Keyword-driven search scoped to a city with a tight radius.

→ Full payload per result — all standard fields populated where the source provides them.

{
  "query": "Restaurants",
  "location": "Mumbai",
  "maxResults": 50
}

Incremental tracking — Only emit companies that changed since the previous run with this stateKey.

→ First run builds the baseline state. Subsequent runs emit only records that are new or whose tracked content changed. Set emitUnchanged: true to include unchanged records as well.

{
  "query": "Restaurants",
  "maxResults": 200,
  "incrementalMode": true,
  "stateKey": "restaurants-tracker"
}

Compact output for AI agents — Return only core fields for AI-agent and MCP workflows.

→ Small payload with the most important fields — ideal for piping into LLMs without token overhead.

{
  "query": "Restaurants",
  "maxResults": 50,
  "compact": true
}

Output

Each run produces a dataset of structured company records. Results can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Dataset tab in Apify Console.

Incremental fields

When incremental mode is on, each record also carries:

• changeType — one of NEW, UPDATED, UNCHANGED, REAPPEARED, EXPIRED. Default output covers NEW / UPDATED / REAPPEARED; set emitUnchanged: true or emitExpired: true to opt into the others.
• isRepost, repostOfId, repostDetectedAt — populated when a new listing matches the tracked content of a previously expired one. Set skipReposts: true to drop detected reposts from the output.

How much does it cost to scrape justdial.com?

Justdial Business Listings Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced.

• Run start: $0.00005 per run
• Per result: $0.00148 per company record

Example costs:

• 10 results: $0.015
• 25 results: $0.037
• 100 results: $0.15
• 200 results: $0.3
• 500 results: $0.74

Example: recurring monitoring savings

These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of companies that are new or whose tracked content changed since the previous run. Actual churn depends on your query breadth, source activity, and polling frequency — the scenarios below are examples, not predictions.

Example setup: 250 companies per run, daily polling (30 runs/month). Costs scale linearly with the number of companies.

Churn rate	Full re-scrape run cost	Incremental run cost	Savings vs full re-scrape	Monthly cost after baseline
5% — stable niche query	$0.37	$0.02	$0.35 (95%)	$0.56
15% — moderate broad query	$0.37	$0.06	$0.32 (85%)	$1.67
30% — high-volume aggregator	$0.37	$0.11	$0.26 (70%)	$3.34

Full re-scrape monthly cost at the same cadence: $11.14. First month with incremental costs $0.91 / $1.99 / $3.60 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply.

Platform usage is included in the per-result fee shown above.
