Three Domain Statuses at same time..??

[Daver]

Hi, Please help me to understand the status of a .in domain. The whois info is:

Created On:05-Nov-2009
Last Updated On:19-Dec-2011 02:00:35 UTC
Expiration Date:05-Nov-2012

Status: PENDING DELETE RESTORABLE
Status: HOLD
Status: REDEMPTIONPERIOD

Why there are three statuses? and what does each mean? The explanation at Inregistry is so confusing..

Domain is not resolving now. How to calculate the drop day? By adding 30-35 days?

Please Input..

You can't calculate it yet.

This post will help explain.

Amazingly enough I had a domain I was set to pay $45 from a drop catcher here, and I just happened to check it on whois and it was available - I think even the drop catchers are playing guessing games but he has caught a couple decent names for me as well.
