What is a .investments domain?
.investments is an open generic top-level domain whose registry manager is Binky Moon, LLC, a company run through Identity Digital Inc. of Bellevue, Washington. IANA’s record shows it in the root since 23 April 2014, after a delegation to Holly Glen, LLC; it moved to Binky Moon in the March 2018 transfer of .academy and 195 other extensions.
The word itself is the product description. Where a brand name on .com says nothing about the business, yourfirm.investments tells a visitor the category before the page loads, which is the only real reason to pay this extension’s price.

Who in India uses a .investments name?
The natural buyers are firms whose whole business is managing or advising on money: investment advisers, mutual fund distributors, portfolio managers, family offices and angel networks. For a general accountant or insurance agent the label overstates the offer, and a cheaper finance extension or .in reads better.
| Buyer | Example name | What the site does |
|---|---|---|
| Fee-only investment adviser | sharmaadvisory.investments | Explains the advisory model and books a first call |
| Mutual fund distributor | sipplanner.investments | SIP calculators, fund categories, onboarding forms |
| Portfolio or fund manager | northstar.investments | Strategy notes, factsheets, investor login |
| Family office | mehtafamily.investments | A quiet, credible address for partners and bankers |
| Angel or seed network | jaipurangels.investments | Deal-flow applications and member updates |
What does a .investments domain cost compared with .fund, .capital and .money?
WebJi® lists .investments at ₹12,757 for the first year and ₹13,553 for each renewal year, before 18% GST, as read from billing on 4 November 2026. That makes it the most expensive name in its finance family, so compare it with the shorter alternatives before you commit.
| Extension | Year one (₹) | Renewal (₹/yr) | Reads as | Order |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| .investments | ₹12,757 | ₹13,553 | Investing as the whole business | Register → |
| .fund | ₹9,471 | ₹11,374 | A named fund or scheme | Register → |
| .capital | ₹9,471 | ₹11,374 | Venture, PE or lending firms | Register → |
| .money | ₹4,562 | ₹4,846 | Personal finance and money tips | Register → |
As a budgeting figure, one year at the first-year rate plus two renewal years at today’s renewal rate comes to ₹39,863 before tax. That is a planning estimate, not a quote for a prepaid three-year order: a multi-year term is priced at checkout, and the checkout total is the one you pay. Registry-premium labels such as single dictionary words carry their own price, shown before payment.
Does the .investments registry check SEBI or other licences?
No — .investments is an open extension, so the registry does not ask for SEBI, AMFI, RBI or any other licence before a name is registered. That cuts both ways: you can buy one without paperwork, and so can anyone else, which means the domain proves nothing about regulatory status.
- Documents: none at registration; accurate registrant contacts are the only requirement.
- Who can hold it: an individual, proprietorship, LLP, company or trust, in India or abroad.
- Regulation still applies: a regulated adviser’s obligations come from its regulator, not its domain, and investors should check registration on the regulator’s own register.
- Names to avoid: labels that imitate a bank, AMC or exchange invite a complaint under the domain dispute process and the registry’s acceptable-use policy.
How do you make a .investments address look trustworthy to investors?
Investors judge a finance address by the details around it, so pair the name with authenticated email, HTTPS and a verifiable business identity on every page. Investment scams lean on lookalike domains, which makes these basics more important here than on a hobby site.
- Publish SPF, DKIM and DMARC before sending a single client email; the SPF and DMARC setup guide covers the records.
- Serve the site only over HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate.
- Show your legal name, office address and any registration numbers on the contact page.
- Register the obvious variants of your brand on .in or .com and redirect them, as described in protecting a domain name.
.investments or .in — which should an Indian advisory firm choose?
Choose .in at ₹1,000 a year when Indian clients and price matter most; choose .investments when the category in the address is worth roughly thirteen times that renewal cost. Neither extension ranks better in Google; content, reputation and links decide that.
- .in — the clearest Indian signal and the cheapest to keep for decades.
- .investments — best as a campaign or product address that redirects to, or sits beside, the main brand.
- .fund or .capital — shorter, cheaper, and closer to how fund houses and VC firms describe themselves.
Once registered, point the name at your host and set up business email on it; renewals and transfers follow the steps in the domain registration hub.
Frequently asked questions
Who operates the .investments registry?
Binky Moon, LLC is the registry manager in the IANA root zone database, with Identity Digital Inc. in Bellevue, Washington as its administrative and technical contact. It was first delegated to Holly Glen, LLC in April 2014 and moved to Binky Moon in the March 2018 portfolio transfer.
Can a mutual fund distributor without SEBI adviser registration use a .investments name?
The registry will accept the order, because it checks no licence. What the site says is a separate matter: describe your services accurately and follow the rules of whichever body you are registered with, since the domain itself grants no status.
Is a .investments domain worth ₹13,553 a year to renew?
Only if the address does marketing work, such as a fund launch or a short memorable name for print. For an everyday firm website, .in at ₹1,000 or .money at ₹4,846 a year renews far more cheaply and loses nothing in search.
Is .investments signed with DNSSEC?
Yes. IANA lists a secure delegation with a published DS record for .investments, so your own name can be signed once your DNS host supports DNSSEC. For a finance site that protects visitors against forged DNS answers.
Are short .investments names priced higher?
Some are. The registry marks certain short or common words as premium, and those carry an individual price that usually also applies at renewal. The search box on this page shows the price for the exact name before you pay.
