It should have been idn.idn (hindi or the other major indian languages)

Maybe I am missing somtheing here..

Yes, I think you misunderstood.

It isn't going to be (IDN).bharat.

It's going to be (IDN).भारत

My main interest is where do .co.in/.net.in/.org.in owners fit into the .भारत prioritization?
Or will there be 3rd level domains with .भारत on the end? So, a name might look like
(idn keyword).(idn for .net).भारत , or something like it?

It seems that it will take very long time to come but Mitsu is launching very soon it's domain BHARAT.IN - A INFORMATION PORTAL ON INDIA.

Please tell us how you like our logo ?

Best of luck with the launch of Bharat.in! Let us know when it actually launches.

The current logo is a good start. I think the bilingual angle of the logo could be improved upon (but I'm not sure how though!).

This is great news.
I believe the next step in the information process should be for someone with connections at the .in registry to find out how they intend to prioritize the allocation of .bharat names.

Will it be an open landrush as a totally new TLD?
Will .in owners have any priority to the same IDN keyword in .bharat?
How about .co.in, .net.in and .org.in owners?

I believe these questions to be the most important going forward, for those of us who have already invested in the .in namespace.

another chance for domainers / registrar & registry to make money.

Absolutly worthless IMHO for the customer. I have yet to see a famous IDN website all i see are scammers using it to lure ignorant people to enter their login details on the IDN website whose URL look kinds similar to a genuine site.

But ya, i may end up registering a few myself maybe some of my customers would be interested in it.

Thanx

New developments repoted today:

Domain names in regional languages soon - Technology - livemint.com

Quote:

The global nodal agency for domain names, Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (Icann), has cleared India’s application for internationalized domain names (IDNs) in seven regional languages in the first leg of a two-part approval process, government officials said.

The final approval is expected in a few months and website registrations in regional languages will begin six months after that, a development that is expected to help bridge India’s digital divide and throw open business opportunities.

There are technical issues with Devanagari character sets that need to be resolved prior to an application being filed. Better to start properly, rather than having to undergo disruptive modifications after domains have been assigned.
