What is a .internet.in domain?
.internet.in is a second-level zone under India's .in country code, run by NIXI's .IN Registry, where the full word “internet” sits before .in. It is open to any registrant who completes NIXI's KYC check, and it is one of the newer zones NIXI lists beside co.in, net.in and org.in in its registry search.
Unlike most two- or three-letter .in zones, this one spells its subject out, so a visitor knows before the page loads that the site is about connectivity. That makes it a natural home for the businesses that sell or support internet access.
Which connectivity businesses register .internet.in?
The clearest fit is India's large base of small and regional internet providers: local ISPs, cable broadband operators, Wi-Fi hotspot providers and the technicians who install and maintain their networks. Each needs a plan page, an outage notice board and a payment link that subscribers can type from memory.
| Business | Example name | Pages subscribers use |
|---|---|---|
| Category C local ISP in a district town | sikarfiber.internet.in | Plans, new connection form, bill payment |
| Cable operator offering broadband | citycable.internet.in | Combo packs, area coverage, complaints |
| PM-WANI public Wi-Fi provider | chaiwifi.internet.in | Hotspot map, voucher prices, login help |
| Fibre installation contractor | ftthcrew.internet.in | Services, splicing rates, site photos |
| Village-level digital service centre | gramseva.internet.in | Services offered, timings, fees |
How much is a .internet.in domain, against network-themed endings?
WebJi® bills ₹809 for the first year of .internet.in and ₹877 per renewal, before 18% GST, or ₹2,563 for the first year plus two renewals. That is the same as net.in and far below the generic network endings.
| Extension | Year 1 (₹) | Renewal (₹/yr) | Year 1 + 2 renewals (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| .internet.in | ₹809 | ₹877 | ₹2,563 |
| .net.in | ₹809 | ₹877 | ₹2,563 |

Does a .internet.in name require a DoT ISP licence?
No — the registry asks only for KYC, not a Department of Telecommunications authorisation. The domain and the right to sell internet service are separate: offering broadband still needs a DoT ISP authorisation (Category A, B or C), or registration as a PM-WANI Public Data Office for hotspots.
- Show your licence details on the site; subscribers and partners look for them.
- Avoid big-operator names in your label; a name built on a telecom brand invites an INDRP complaint.
- Disputes and policy: NIXI's .IN rules apply, including INDRP for trademark disputes.
- Holder: register in the licensee's legal name so records match DoT paperwork.
.internet.in or .net.in — which should an ISP choose?
Choose .net.in for a short, conventional address and .internet.in when the full word helps non-technical subscribers recognise what you sell. Both cost the same and both are geotargeted to India by search engines, which suits a provider whose customers are local.
Many small ISPs register both, use one for the website and point the other at the payment page. If your brand is widely known, a plain .in remains the strongest single choice.
Running subscriber services on a .internet.in domain
An ISP's site is busiest during outages, so host the status page apart from the network it reports on. Sub-domains such as pay., status. and support. keep each job separate. Plan alerts by text through a bulk SMS service, and give support staff mailboxes on business email. Resellers selling hosting alongside broadband can look at reseller hosting; to move an existing name, see domain transfer.
Frequently asked questions
Is .internet.in managed by the same registry as .in?
Yes. NIXI, a not-for-profit company registered on 19 June 2003 and authorised by the Government of India as the .IN registry since January 2005, runs .in and all its second-level zones, internet.in included.
Can a foreign ISP register a .internet.in domain?
Yes. .in names are open to registrants anywhere on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to NIXI's KYC. Selling internet service to Indian subscribers, however, still needs an Indian DoT authorisation.
What should I budget for .internet.in over five years?
About ₹4,317 before 18% GST as a planning figure: ₹809 for the first year plus four yearly renewals at today's ₹877 (₹3,508). The same basis gives ₹22,000 for .tech. Checkout confirms the actual charge.
Can we use a .internet.in domain for a captive Wi-Fi login page?
Yes. A registered domain lets the login portal use a trusted SSL certificate, so phones do not show security warnings when users connect to the hotspot.
Are long names like broadband-plans.internet.in a problem?
Technically no; labels can run to 63 characters. In practice subscribers type addresses on phones, so a short label such as yourisp.internet.in reduces mistakes and fits on a bill or router sticker.
