its country specific code.

Each build is made according to specific countries.

We have INS as India CSC.

[iamchandandolui]

every CSC code is different...how it's possible?

[MrGEEK]

When you are manually downloading any Samsung firmware file, the exact names according to the model number is very important.
Moreover, as we all already know that the firmware updates, most of the times, are rolled out region-wise, these CSC codes are very important as the include region-specific settings, customizations, and system configurations.
The region-wise updates also include system language, APN settings as well. This is the reason why, you would see a different CSC code for the same device in different region

The firmware is the same bro the CSC has carrier bloat and things like that.. you can flash any CSC within the OXM multi CSC list with the (Home CSC File) and you'll remain on current CSC with upgraded firmware.

The full-form of CSC is ‘Consumer Software Customization‘ or ‘Country Specific (Product) Code‘. The CSC component of a Samsung firmware is specific to network providers and geographical region. In other words, it contains customizations related to a geographical location, APN settings, carrier branding, and other things.
