As in other ccTLD domains, some hot keyword+.IN can be profitable. However, .IN has a long way to go to achieve blossom, since there are many existing deficiencies in Indian socio-economic conditions for a possible economy booming and advanced industrious development.

At present, .IN has no ways to compete with .CO.UK, .DE and some other ccTLD domains in the total market performance. India, like every other nation, has something unique that can be created as precious domain gems, if you know what they are, that are important and special for India. However, many foreigners don't know or don't care about this essence of .IN domains, and just register as many .IN domains as they consider them profitable, with outsiders' ignorant speculations and or with westerners' idealistic expectations.

Domain names are primarily interacting with economy, domestically and internationally. In the world economy system, generally, advanced economies' domain names are more valuable and more profitable than non-advanced economies' domain names. At present, unfortunately, India is not an advanced economy.

For most average-word .IN domains, at present, the more you buy, the more disappointment you own.

there are some very solid .in names still left to reg. I would rather go for that.

Yes and No, I think there are some areas for brandability within .in names but like the person above me said it would have to be combined with a keyword.

At present there are way too many keywords yet to be regg'd, however some premium/popular keywords are gone. So the ones which are taken already... could possibly be combined with something brandable... for example www.names4u.in - since www.names.in is taken ... or www.domains4u.in since www.domains.in is taken.

In time these names will be worth a good amount, especially LLL.in

Very special brandable .in can have value, but not all that much (to resellers). "Hacked" domains are an example (like: beg*in, log*in). Otherwise, high-quality LLL.in might be considered brandable, and have value over a single year's registration fees. Also, perfect generic domains (like business*in) may have significant value. The aftermarket is very limited in all cases.

I agree with you. Names like business, internet, credit, etc. Are all very brand able and sellable.

Even Hindi names can be branded. I have Dalal.co.in. What do you think?

Honestly ive been watching the .in extension for a while now. I see lots of people buying names but the reseller market hasnt been there yet, but i think as soon as the LLL.in market sees a buyout then you will see this extension explode. From what im seeing it looks to be a promising extention in itself. Only the indian economy will tell the future. So if you are going to reg brandable .in names better be fixing to hold on to them for a while if you wanna make a profit off them.
