Justdial Business Scraper

Turn any Justdial category into a clean, structured business list. Search by category + city, paste a category listing URL, or drop direct business URLs — and get one flat row per business with name, decoded phone, WhatsApp, email, full address, GPS, rating, reviews, working hours and more.

Built for lead generation, local-market research and competitor mapping across 1,000+ Indian cities.

How it works

✨ Why use this scraper?

• Decoded contact details — phone, WhatsApp and email pulled straight from each business profile, not just what's on the listing card.
• Three ways in — category + city, category listing URLs, or direct business (_BZDET) URLs. Mix them in one run.
• Beats Justdial's block — Justdial silently serves a 14-byte stub to scrapers; this actor routes every request through an India-geo unlocker chain with automatic fallback, so you get real pages.
• Rich, self-contained rows — every row carries listing + profile data merged together (address components, GPS, year established, employee band, turnover, services, hours, images).
• No brittle DOM scraping — reads Justdial's embedded __NEXT_DATA__ JSON, so the output stays stable when the page layout changes.
• JSON, CSV, Excel or API — pipe results straight into your CRM, sheet or data pipeline. Billed per business row.

📥 Supported inputs

Input	Example	What it does
City + Category	city: "Mumbai", search: "Furniture Contractors"	Builds and paginates the matching Justdial listing
Category listing URL	https://www.justdial.com/Mumbai/Furniture-Contractors/nct-10219641	Paginates that listing (with or without the /nct-… id)
Direct business URL	https://www.justdial.com/Mumbai/RK-Carpenter…U1E1_BZDET	Scrapes that single business profile

Not supported: Justdial reviews-only exports, B2B product catalogues, movie/event ticketing pages, and anything behind a Justdial login. The actor scrapes only public business listing and profile pages.

⚙️ How it works

1. Match every input — a category + city is resolved to the exact Justdial category; pasted URLs are sorted into listings vs business profiles, and duplicate listings are merged.
2. Fetch listing pages through an India-geo unlocker chain (with automatic provider fallback) so you get the real page instead of Justdial's 14-byte block stub, following the /page-2, /page-3 … sequence automatically up to your limit.
3. Parse each page's embedded __NEXT_DATA__ JSON into one row per business — no brittle DOM scraping, so output stays stable across layout changes.
4. Enrich each business (when Scrape business detail pages is on) with phone, WhatsApp, email, full address, GPS, hours, year, turnover and services — via a fast contact lookup, falling back to the full profile page when needed.
5. Stream one flat, self-contained row per business to the dataset as it's scraped, so even a partial or interrupted run keeps everything found so far.

⚙️ Input parameters

useMobileApi	boolean	true	Fast contact lookup — resolves phone, email and address through Justdial's quick contact endpoint, with automatic fallback. Leave on for the fastest, most reliable runs.
maxItems	integer	1000	Max business rows per listing URL (Justdial serves ≤ ~100 per category × city).

📊 Output overview

Each dataset record is one business, with listing-level fields (name, rating, review count, area, pincode, category, verified flag, listing position) merged together with profile-level fields (decoded phone, WhatsApp, email, website, full address + components, GPS, working hours, year established, legal name, employee band, turnover, services and images). Direct-business-URL rows contain the profile fields only.

❓ FAQ

Is the phone number real? It's the contact number Justdial displays on the business profile (its VNumber). For many businesses this forwards to their real line — it's the number a customer would call from Justdial.

Why is website sometimes a YouTube or social link? That's exactly what the business entered as their "website" on Justdial. The actor reports it verbatim; turn on enrichEmails to additionally discover a real website/email from the business name.

How many results can I get per category? Justdial caps a category × city at roughly 100 visible businesses, even when thousands exist. To go wider, run several nearby cities or related categories.

What do I get on the free plan vs paid? A free run returns the first 5 businesses in full — real phone, WhatsApp and email — plus up to 25 more rows with the contact fields partially masked (e.g. 99••••••75, sh•••@gmail.com) so you can judge the volume and quality first. Those masked rows are not charged. On a paid plan every row comes back in full.

Do I need to configure proxies or an unlocker? No. Justdial's anti-bot handling is built in and India-routed. Just give it a category + city or some URLs.

Can I get just the cheap listing data? Yes — turn off Scrape business detail pages for a fast, low-cost run with name, rating, area, pincode, category and verified flag (no phone/address).
