.in is thecountry code top-level domain (ccTLD) forIndia. It was introduced in May 1989. It is currently administered by theNational Internet Exchange of India.

Registry operator

[edit]

The domain was originally managed by theNational Centre for Software Technology (NCST) and itsCentre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC). TheGovernment of India issued an executive order in 2004 to transfer responsibility for managing .in domains to the newly createdINRegistry under the authority of theNational Internet Exchange of India (NIXI). TheNational Informatics Centre (NIC),ERNET, and theMinistry of Defence were appointed as registrars for the gov.in, res.in and ac.in, and the mil.in domains respectively.[4][5]

In August 2018, NIXI appointed Neustar Data Infotech (India), asubsidiary ofNeustar Inc, to be the country's new registry services provider. Neustar completed migration of existing .in domains to its registry infrastructure in March 2019. Neustar added the ability to register Indian-language domains in native script by enabling end-to-end web portal language support.[6]

Second-level domains

[edit]

As of 2005[update], liberalised policies for the.in domain allow unlimited second-level registrations under.in. Unlimited registrations under the previously structured existing zones are also allowed:[7]

  • .in (available to anyone; used by companies, individuals, and organisations in India)
  • .co.in (intended for banks, registered companies, and trademarks)
  • .com.in (available to anyone; used by companies, individuals, and organisations in India)
  • .firm.in (intended for shops,partnerships, liaison offices,sole proprietorships)
  • .net.in (intended forInternet service providers)
  • .org.in (intended fornonprofit organisations)
  • .gen.in (intended for general/miscellaneous use)
  • .ind.in (intended for individuals)

Zones reserved for use by qualified institutions in India:[7]

  • .ernet.in (Older, for both educational and research institutes)[8][9]
  • .ac.in (Academic institutions)
  • .edu.in (Educational institutions)
  • .res.in (Indian research institutes)
  • .gov.in (Indian government andState governments)
  • .mil.in (Indian military organisations)

The domain.nic.in is reserved for India'sNational Informatics Centre, but in practice most Indian government agencies have domains ending in.nic.in.

The .in registry launched following sub-domains on Oct 29, 2021 to benefit the growing market:[10]

  • .5g.in
  • .6g.in
  • .ai.in
  • .am.in
  • .bihar.in
  • .biz.in
  • .business.in
  • .ca.in
  • .cn.in
  • .com.in
  • .coop.in
  • .cs.in
  • .delhi.in
  • .dr.in
  • .er.in
  • .gujarat.in
  • .info.in
  • .int.in
  • .internet.in
  • .io.in
  • .me.in
  • .pg.in
  • .post.in
  • .pro.in
  • .travel.in
  • .tv.in
  • .uk.in
  • .up.in
  • .us.in

Before the introduction of liberalised registration policies for the.in domain, only 7000 names had been registered between 1992 and 2004. As of March 2010[update], the number had increased to over 610,000 domain names with 60% of registrations coming from India and the rest from overseas.[11] By October 2011, the number had surpassed 1 million domain names.[12] As of March 2016[update], the number has more than doubled to over 2 million domain names.[13]

Restrictions on use of .in domains

[edit]

As per the terms and conditions of the.in registry,domain privacy is not allowed.[14]

Recently updated EKYC guidelines were issued to all registrars to authenticate new registrants. Hence, the previous rule relating to bulk booking of .in domain names has been withdrawn. Now customers can book unlimited .in domain names as previously in line with promoting .in TLD on par with other popular TLDs like .com and others which also has no restrictions relating to bulk booking.[15]

Internationalised domain names and country codes

[edit]

India plans to introduceinternationalised domain names in the 22 local languages used in the country. As of October 2016[update], fifteen of these internationalised domain names were accepted byICANN:

  • .भारत (Devanagari), became available with the following zones:[16]
Devanagari stringTransliterated string
भारत.bharat
कंपनी.भारतcompany.bharat
विद्या.भारतvidya.bharat
सरकार.भारतsarkar.bharat

In 2016, an application for eight further domains was accepted. While the Indian government also applied for.বাংলা (Bengali), it was given to a competing applicant, theBangladesh Telecommunication Company Limited (BTCL).These domains were not available (as of October 2016[update]):[17] But, they were later on made available and now are open for domain registration in India.
