Guidelines for .in and .co.in Domain Registration and Management
If you have a business or professional presence in India, .in and .co.in domains are ideal choices for your website. These country code top-level domains (ccTLDs) have specific requirements and features you should know about.
Registration Guidelines:
- No refunds or cancellation grace period available
- Verify domain spelling before registration
- Individual registrants can register up to 2 .co.in domains
- Businesses can register up to 100 .co.in domains
- Additional registrations require approval from [email protected] (24-hour process)
Expiration Policy:
For Tucows registrar:
- 40-day grace period for renewal
- Additional 30-day redemption period through Tucows
For Key-Systems registrar:
- Approximately 30-day renewal period after expiration
- Once removed from dashboard, restoration may not be possible
Important Notes:
- Registry may delete unauthorized domains without notice
- Domain registrar approval is required for exceeding registration limits
- These rules apply only to registered or transferred domains, not connected domains
- Pricing varies; check domain search tools for current rates
Domain registrations exceeding limits without proper approval risk deletion by the registry. The approval process typically takes 24 hours, and registrars are not responsible for registry decisions regarding domain deletion.
