Domain Registration India Private Limited, trading as Domain India, is a NIXI-accredited .IN domain registrar. That means we are authorised to register .in, .co.in and the other Indian extensions with the .IN registry, and we also provide domains in other extensions, web hosting, VPS servers and business email. This page explains what the accreditation means for you and what you can do with us today.

Key takeaways

Domain Registration India Private Limited (Domain India) is accredited by NIXI, which runs the .IN registry, and every .in domain registered with us follows the registry's rules on eligibility, identity verification and disputes. A .in costs ₹575 to register and ₹625 a year to renew, and .co.in and the other second-level extensions cost ₹475, then ₹525. Personal details on .in domains are hidden from public WHOIS for free, and everything is managed from one client area.

1. Who we are

Domain India has been serving customers since 2007. The registered company is Domain Registration India Private Limited, and "Domain India" is the name you will see on our website and in our emails. Alongside .IN registration, we provide:

Domains
.in and its family, plus .com, .net, .org and many other extensions, with transfers and renewals
Hosting
cPanel, DirectAdmin and Webuzo shared hosting, Windows (Plesk) hosting and an App Platform for developers
Servers and more
KVM VPS with full root access, Business Email and the AI Website Builder

2. What NIXI accreditation means

The .IN country-code domain is run by NIXI (the National Internet Exchange of India). Only accredited registrars can register .in domains with the registry directly. For you, that means:

  • We are authorised by the registry. Accreditation is what allows a registrar to register and manage .in names with the .IN registry.
  • The registry's rules apply to every .in domain. The registrant needs a genuine connection with India, every registrant completes identity verification (eKYC), and disputes over .in names are decided under the .IN Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (INDRP).
  • Some names cannot be registered. The registry reserves or prohibits certain names; see reserved and prohibited .IN names.

3. The .in family and prices

Domain India list prices on 19 September 2026, excluding 18% GST. You can register for 1 to 10 years at a time. For comparison, a .com is ₹1,150 a year to register or renew.

4. What every .in registration includes

  • Free WHOIS privacy. For .in and its second-level extensions (.co.in, .net.in, .org.in and others), personal registrant details are not shown in public WHOIS. This is free and automatic; there is nothing to switch on.
  • A free transfer lock, which you turn on or off on the domain's Transfer tab in the client area.
  • Identity verification online. Complete eKYC on the Identity verification page with DigiLocker, then confirm the registry's email. Until both are done, a new .in can be held and may not resolve. Step by step: Mandatory KYC for .IN domains.
  • One client area for all your domains and services, protected with two-factor authentication if you turn it on.

5. Registering, transferring and renewing

  1. Register.
    Search on domain registration, pick the extensions and period, enter registrant details that match your identity document, and pay. The full guide is Registering .in domains.
  2. Transfer in.
    Domains held elsewhere can move to us: unlock the domain at your current registrar, get its auth code and enter both on the Domain Transfer page. See Can I transfer an existing domain to Domain India.
  3. Renew.
    Domain India never charges a saved card automatically. A renewal invoice is emailed up to 30 days before the due date, and the domain renews when that invoice is paid.
Do not let a .in domain lapse

A .in domain can be renewed at the normal price up to day 36 after expiry. From day 37 it can only be restored, for ₹4,000, which includes GST and the renewal.

6. Support

Support is by 24/7 live chat and support tickets, and tickets get a first response within 15 minutes; resolution time depends on the issue. There is no phone support. Open a ticket at /support/ticket, or from the client area if you are signed in. For what the team can and cannot help with, see scope of support.
