    Hi Chrome,

    This is just my opinion, but I do not think the names are of much value.

    I always look at the numbers that are being searched on in Google.co.in and if the name has any commercial or business value in particular to end users.

    Use Googles Keyword tool and select India and exact match in the settings.
    https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

    Here are some examples of names that I have and you will see what I am talking about

    WaterPurifiers.in

    SolarPanels.in

    SolarWaterHeater.in

    DigitalPhotoFrames.in

    RapidPrototyping.in

    They all relate to a product or service and are very easy to target for development and or sale to an end user or other domainers.

    When the names are very broad like the ones you have listed it makes it much harder to do so.

    Just my thoughts

    Regards

    Go for domains which have some 'commercial or business value'

    eg : WaterPurifiers.in
    SolarPanels.in
    etc


    These below don't make much sense:

    bind.co.in
    bend.co.in
    bark.co.in
    brow.in
    bury.in

    It's a good idea to try and picture what sort of a business you see buying the domain from you and what sort of a website would go on the domain.

    With a domain like like WaterPurifiers.in, it's really obvious.

    With a domain like Brow.in, it's not.

    Simply being a one word English term doesn't make a domain valuable, particularly with .in.

    @OzDomainer, very good examples. Are any of those domains for sale?
