I'm Indian, born and bred, can't visit, live here.
In advertising since 1988. Online since 1998. Never went for the 'grow big fast' mantra, opting instead for the 'slow and steady wins the race' one.
Currently running 12 companies and own 45 active portals.
When everyone was selling .in (April-Aug 07), I was buying, call me what you will... but I went after .in for what I consider were the right reasons.
I very much doubt I'm wrong and have put my money where my mouth is. I think you need to get your facts straight before making statements.

Fact of the matter, new companies use the .in for branding, .co.in only for brand protection coverage.
And if .uk came out, I'm willing to bet that it would outstrip regs in all other third level .xx.uk names by 2x in three years...
