What is a .pink domain?
.pink is an open generic top-level domain (gTLD) for the colour, delegated to the DNS root on 18 January 2014 and managed today by Identity Digital Limited. The application came out of the 2012 ICANN new-gTLD round with Afilias as the original technical backend; Afilias and Donuts later merged into what is now Identity Digital, which is why IANA lists the operator directly rather than through one of its subsidiary LLCs. The zone carries a secure (DNSSEC-signed) delegation and accepts internationalised labels under registry IDN tables.
| Attribute | Value |

| Type | Generic top-level domain, unrestricted |
| Registry manager | Identity Digital Limited (c/o Identity Digital Inc., Bellevue, WA) |
| Delegated | 18 January 2014 |
| DNSSEC | Signed — secure delegation at the root |

| Term | 1 to 10 years |
Which Indian businesses choose a .pink name?
.pink sells to businesses whose brand is literally pink: beauty salons, cosmetics and lingerie labels, bridal and mehendi studios, florists, and October breast-cancer-awareness campaigns. It also works as a doing-business-as side name — a Delhi studio running a bridal sub-brand can give it its own address without buying another .com. The colour does the qualifying before a visitor reads a single line of copy.
| Buyer | Example name | What the address signals |
|---|---|---|
| Beauty salon or unisex spa | blushbarn.pink | The palette is the brand; bookings land on a name that matches the interiors |
| Cosmetics or skincare label | rosewater.pink | Product-range identity for D2C storefronts and Instagram link-in-bio |
| Bridal and mehendi studio | shaadiseason.pink | A campaign microsite for wedding-season leads, beside the main .com |
| DBA or sub-brand | studiorose.pink | Separate identity for a side label without a second .com purchase |
| Awareness campaign or NGO drive | octobercheck.pink | Pink-ribbon fundraising and screening drives read instantly |
| Florist or gifting studio | peonies.pink | Flower-led branding for catalogue and delivery pages |
If the name you want is a common word, expect registry premium pricing — the exact figure is shown before you pay, never after.
What a .pink domain costs at WebJi®
.pink is ₹2,510 for the first year and ₹2,524 for every renewal year at WebJi®, before 18% GST. On the first-year charge GST adds ₹451.80, so the invoice reads ₹2,961.80. Unlike extensions sold on discounted first years, .pink sits on a flat band — what you pay at registration is within ₹14 of what you pay at every renewal.
| Holding period | Working | Total (₹) | With 18% GST (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 year | ₹2,510 registration | 2,510.00 | 2,961.80 |
| 3 years | ₹2,510 + ₹2,524 + ₹2,524 | 7,558.00 | 8,918.44 |
| 5 years | ₹2,510 + 4 × ₹2,524 | 12,606.00 | 14,875.08 |
This is a renewal-budget scenario — first year plus the renewals that follow — not a prepaid multi-year total. Prices read from WebJi® billing on 4 November 2026; checkout confirms current charges.
| Extension | Registration (₹/yr) | Renewal (₹/yr) | Better when |
|---|---|---|---|
| .pink | 2,510 | 2,524 | The colour is the brand itself |
| .red | 2,294 | 2,464 | Valentine, fashion-sale or bold-red branding |
| .boutique | 2,722 | 3,289 | A store more than a colour; luxury retail feel |
| .salon | 9,471 | 11,374 | The trade matters more than the palette |
Restrictions and paperwork for registering .pink
None apply to eligibility: .pink is open to any individual, company, society or trust anywhere in the world, with no documents checked at order time. What the registry does expect is ordinary gTLD hygiene — accurate registrant contact data, a working email for verification and renewal notices, and use within its acceptable-use policy. First completed order for an available name wins; names are not reserved while you think.
- Documents: none. A GSTIN is optional, used only to print input-credit invoices.
- Residency: no Indian presence or local address required.
- Premium names: short or dictionary words renew at their premium rate too.
- Transfers in: unlock, take the EPP code, approve the email; a .pink transfer is billed at ₹2,510 and adds a year, with ICANN's 60-day lock after registration or transfer.
Ordering itself is one checkout — search, pick a term, pay in INR — and the general process is on the domain registration India hub.
.pink, .com or .in — how an Indian owner should decide
Put your full site on .com or .in, and use .pink as the memorable front door that forwards to it — that is how most colour extensions are actually used. No extension is a Google ranking factor; content, links and speed decide placement. The choice is about what a customer types after hearing your brand once.
- .pink — instant palette signal; unbeatable for salons, cosmetics and pink-ribbon work.
- .com — ₹1,380 a year, renewal ₹1,480; the safe default when you also serve customers who distrust unfamiliar endings.
- .in / .co.in — ₹1,000 and ₹809 a year; the identity to choose when India is the market and pink is one campaign.
After your .pink registration
A fresh .pink name resolves once its nameservers point at your host, usually within a few hours. A salon catalogue fits comfortably on shared hosting from ₹299 a month, addresses like bookings@yourstudio.pink run on business email hosting, and the domain renewal guide explains the grace and redemption windows if a payment is ever missed. Moving a name from another registrar is covered in the domain transfer guide.
Frequently asked questions
Who operates the .pink registry?
Identity Digital Limited, listed as the manager in the IANA root zone database. The extension was delegated on 18 January 2014 with Afilias as the original backend; Afilias, Donuts and their portfolios consolidated into Identity Digital, which now runs .pink alongside hundreds of other gTLDs.
What does holding a .pink domain for three years cost?
₹7,558 before GST as a renewal-budget scenario — ₹2,510 registration plus two renewal years at ₹2,524 — or ₹8,918.44 including 18% GST. Registry-premium names sit above this band and quote before payment.
Can a salon without GST registration buy a .pink name?
Yes. The registry checks no documents and needs no GSTIN; individuals and proprietorships register the same way companies do. Add a GSTIN to the order only if you want it on the invoice for input credit.
Is .pink good for a breast-cancer-awareness campaign in India?
It is one of the clearest fits in the zone. Pink is the ribbon colour for breast-cancer awareness, so screening-drive and fundraiser microsites on .pink communicate their purpose in the URL itself — useful for October campaigns run by hospitals, NGOs and corporate CSR teams.
Does .pink support Devanagari or other script names?
Internationalised domain names are supported through the registry's IDN tables, so script-specific labels can be registered where the tables allow them. Check the exact spelling in the search box on this page before ordering, since variants are separate registrations.
Is the .pink zone DNSSEC-signed?
Yes, IANA records a secure delegation for .pink with DS records published at the root. You can sign your own name's records once your DNS provider supports DNSSEC.
