What is a .partners domain?
.partners is an open generic top-level domain for firms whose structure is the partnership itself — the registry names law firms, real estate agencies, investment firms, accounting firms and nonprofits as its market. IANA delegates it to Binky Moon, LLC (operating through Identity Digital of Bellevue, Washington) with the delegation dated 4 February 2014 and a secure DNSSEC signing in place. For an Indian buyer, the label maps cleanly onto the LLP — the limited liability partnership that accountants, consultants and law practices actually register as.
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Generic top-level domain (open, no eligibility test) |
| Registry manager | Binky Moon, LLC (c/o Identity Digital Inc.) |
| Delegated | 4 February 2014 |
| DNSSEC | Signed (secure delegation) |
| Name length | 2–63 characters: letters, digits, inner hyphens |
| Term | 1 to 10 years |
Indian firms that read naturally on .partners
Firms where "partners" is how the market describes the top: LLPs, CA practices, law partnerships, brokerages and fund houses. The address does a job a .com cannot — it states the structure before the visitor reads a single line of the site.
| Who | Example name | What the label states |
|---|---|---|
| Chartered accountancy firm | mehtaandco.partners | Partnership practice, not a company |
| Law partnership | lex Chambers.partners | The legal form clients expect |
| LLP advisory or consulting outfit | scaleup.partners | Growth advisors behind the brand |
| Real-estate brokerage | skyline.partners | Agency with partners, not a portal |
| VC or family-office fund | seedfund.partners | Investment-partnership reading |
A firm whose brand says something else entirely — a shop, a product, a personal name — is better served by .com or .in; the label only earns its keep when the partnership idea belongs in the address.
The price of .partners — read it before falling for the name
.partners costs ₹9,471 for the first year and ₹11,374 for every renewal year at WebJi®, before 18% GST — one of the most expensive zones on our billing sheet. Registry-premium words sit above even that and are quoted before payment. Budget it as a brand decision, not a domain-impulse.
| Extension | Registration (₹/yr) | Renewal (₹/yr) | Best for | Order |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| .partners | ₹9,471 | ₹11,374 | Partnership-structure firms | Register → |
| .llc | ₹4,562 | ₹4,846 | LLC-style entity branding | Register → |
| .consulting | ₹5,116 | ₹5,440 | Advisory practices | Register → |
| .legal | ₹4,394 | ₹5,275 | Law firms and legal services | Register → |
At this renewal band the multi-year arithmetic deserves a table of its own:
| Horizon | Working | Scenario total (before GST) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | ₹9,471 | ₹9,471 |
| 3 years | ₹9,471 + (₹11,374 × 2) | ₹32,219 |
| 5 years | ₹9,471 + (₹11,374 × 4) | ₹54,967 |

Rules, documents and privacy on .partners
Nothing is checked and nothing is needed: any person, firm or company anywhere registers on a first-come, first-served basis. The partnership reading is the registry's positioning, not a licence the zone enforces.
- Documents: none. A GSTIN is optional, only for input credit on the invoice.
- Transfers: standard gTLD move — auth code from the losing registrar, a completed transfer adds a year, 60-day lock after registration or a previous transfer applies.
- Expiry: the gTLD ladder of grace, redemption at a fee, then pending-delete before release.
- Privacy: WHOIS privacy applies where the registry permits, hiding personal partner contacts behind a proxy.
- Accuracy: keep the registrant mailbox live — renewal notices and transfer approvals land there.
.partners versus .llc, .consulting and .legal
Choose .partners only when the word carries weight with clients and the renewal band is comfortable; the sibling endings say nearly the same thing for roughly half the price. No extension is a ranking factor — the firm's content, citations and reviews decide where the site sits.
- .partners at ₹9,471/₹11,374 — the structure in the address; strongest for multi-partner client-facing practices.
- .llc at ₹4,562/₹4,846 — entity-style branding without the price.
- .consulting at ₹5,116/₹5,440 — advisory positioning for solo and boutique firms.
- .legal at ₹4,394/₹5,275 — practice-area clarity for law firms.
- .agency at ₹1,815/₹2,205 — the budget option for brokerages and representational firms.
A practical Indian pattern: the .com or .in as the client-facing site, the .partners name held defensively or used for the partners' bio page.
Once the firm's name is registered
A .partners name works with any host and mailbox from the moment it clears. A partnership site with partner profiles fits on shared hosting from ₹299 a month, addresses such as tax@yourfirm.partners run on business email hosting, the domain renewal guide covers the grace and redemption ladder at this price band, and domain transfer explains moving a name in from another registrar.
Frequently asked questions
Who operates the .partners registry?
Binky Moon, LLC manages .partners, operating through Identity Digital Inc. of Bellevue, Washington — the IANA root zone database records the delegation. The same registry family runs dozens of business endings, so policies, premium pricing and abuse handling follow a mature playbook.
When was .partners launched?
IANA delegated .partners on 4 February 2014, in the wave of new generic endings that followed ICANN's 2012 expansion programme. The zone has been DNSSEC-signed since delegation, and registration has always been open with no partnership-structure verification.
Is .partners worth ₹11,374 a year at renewal?
Only the firm can answer that honestly. Five years on .partners is ₹54,967 before GST as a scenario, against ₹23,946 on .llc or ₹22,980 on .legal at our listed rates. If "partners" is how clients find and describe you, the label earns it; if it is decoration, the siblings do the same job for less.
Can a sole practitioner register a .partners name?
Yes — the zone verifies nothing, so a single-owner firm, an LLP of two partners or a company can all hold one. The word reads strongest when there genuinely are partners to list; a sole practitioner advertising "partners" may invite the wrong expectation.
Does .partners carry premium names, and how are they priced?
Yes. Short or dictionary labels are priced as registry premiums above the ₹9,471 standard rate, quoted before payment and renewed at the premium rate. The exact figure for a specific name appears the moment you search it — never after you pay.
