Managing Renewals
Keep your domains and hosting services active by managing renewals on time. Domain India sends multiple reminders before expiry, but it is best to stay on top of your renewal schedule.
Checking Renewal Dates
- Log in to your Domain India client area
- Go to My Services for hosting renewals or My Domains for domain renewals
- Each service shows its next due date or expiry date
- The dashboard may also show upcoming renewals
How to Renew
Manual Renewal:
- Go to My Services or My Domains
- Click on the service or domain to renew
- Click Renew and select the renewal period (1 year, 2 years, etc.)
- An invoice is generated — complete payment via your preferred method
- The renewal is processed immediately upon payment
Auto-Renewal:
- Enable auto-renewal from the service or domain management page
- Invoices are generated automatically before the due date
- Payment is processed using your saved payment method or requires manual payment of the invoice
Renewal Reminders
Domain India sends email reminders at:
- 30 days before expiry
- 7 days before expiry
- 1 day before expiry
- On the day of expiry (if not yet renewed)
What Happens If You Don't Renew
Hosting Services:
- Service is suspended on the due date — website goes offline
- Data is retained for a grace period (typically 7–14 days)
- After the grace period, the account and all data are permanently deleted
Domains:
- Domain enters expired status — website and email may stop working
- A grace period (typically 30 days) allows renewal at normal rates
- After grace, the domain enters redemption period — renewal is possible but with a significant additional fee
- After redemption, the domain is deleted and becomes available for anyone to register
Tips
- Renew domains for multiple years to avoid accidental expiry
- Keep your contact email address current so you receive renewal reminders
- Set calendar reminders for important domain renewals
- Pay invoices promptly — unpaid invoices can lead to service suspension
- If you missed a renewal and your service was suspended, contact Domain India support at https://domainindia.com/support immediately for reinstatement options
