Hi Muneendar, can you explain your need? Do I need validation which should validate if phone number starts with 9 only ??

Seems like you want to implement a validation rule to ensure the phone number should start from 9 .

Use REGEX() to implement this.

Hi Muneedar,

Write a validation rule with below rule

!CONTAINS("9", LEFT( TEXT(contactNumber__c) ,1))

> contactNumber__c is the phone number field which is number generic.

Mark this as best answer if this solves your query.
