Indian Domainers: How does the process work for dropping domains?
After they expire, domains take 75 days to become available.
During the first 61 days the domains' status is: PENDING DELETE RESTORABLE
During the last two weeks, their status is: PENDING DELETE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE
The domains are released at 8 pm UTC / GMT.
In other locations the time is:
1.30 am Mumbai and New Delhi
4 pm U.S. Eastern
1 pm U.S. PacificLast edited by Ceres; 08-19-2009 at 12:16 PM. Reason: Updated release time from 9 pm to 8 pm UTC

Yes, the sad fact is they are the ones largely driving the domain aftersales market at the moment so we have to live by there rules. Dammit!

Re: FAQ: How does the process work for dropping Indian domains?
Very true.
.co.in (despite being the more popular extension) is actually the big undiscovered secret in Indian domains
My top ten traffic names include:
7 .co.in
2 .in
1 .org.in

Re: Indian Domainers: How does the process work for dropping domains?
Is it possible for a person who owns a domain, to actually renew the domain in the last 2 weeks of the stipulated time? Frankly I have never tried this, either got them renewed in time or sold them off.
