Thread: Internet companies that target users in India

I came across a list that promotes the top 25 most promising internet companies.

Initially, most sites targeted the global Indians who had more access to the Internet, but nowadays many local Internet businesses have come up targeting users in India as well driving the E-commerce, social networking and more.

I took a look at the first 10 companies only. The 10 domains are all .com's and I was curious to learn if the companies either used or owned the .IN equivalent of their domain. Here are the results:

bigadda.com - no
bolohealth.com - no
concerninfotech.com - no
ethniconlinenetwork.com - no (eon.in be a good acquisition)
foodiebay.com - yes, both .in and .co.in forward to .com
futuretechnocrafts.com - yes, .in under construction, .co.in doesn't resolve
galatta.com - no
ijiny.com - no
indiamart.com - yes, .co.in forwards to .com, .in doesn't resolve
injoos.com - yes, .in forwards to .com, .co.in doesn't resolve

40% of these companies own the .in equivalent (again, I just looked at the first 10 companies on the list, not all 25).
