.in dropping process

[domaindevelopers]

Hi,

Does anyone know the process of .in domains dropping - i mean is there any redemption period before the name actually drops after expiring? how long is it, if any and stuff?

thanx.

Where do you get the list of .in names dropping list?

I had a .in domain which expired in Decemeber 2006.
It's status is now listed as PENDING DELETE RESTORABLE
But expiration date is listed as 21-Dec-2007

It's the same wording as .us.
So I would presume it goes like this:

pending delete restorable = redemption => 30 days
pending delete scheduled for release = pending delete => 5 days
finally: domain drops

Judging by the date he posted that, you can't be right? Or is there a 30 day expire period I am missing?

Maybe I can help , I hope. I had a domain which I registered on 12/27/05. It expired, or ended on 12/27/06. It was not deleted from my registrar until 2/06/07 ( I think this only happens, if someoen else hasn't picked it up, I am not sure) I can still "restore" this domain name back into my account until 3/18/07. HOWEVER, to "restore" it cost $75! (I am not sure if it is the same, or dependent on the registrar. So, when someone else can pick it up, I am still not sure.

Dropped finally about a month back

yes, there are equivalents of REDEMPTION period status and PENDINGDELETE status for all .IN/CO.IN domains.

Redemption period is called PENDING DELETE RESTORABLE status, and it lasts 30 days.
It starts from the next day after expiration date, when the domain was not renewed.

When after these 30 days of PENDING DELETE RESTORABLE status domain is not renewed still, it acquires a PENDING DELETE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE status, on 31 day after expiration date, and this status lasts 5 days more.

Finally, after 5 days of PENDING DELETE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE status,
domain drops.

real example

domain STORY.co.in

Domain Name:STORY.CO.IN
Created On:15-Mar-2005 05:21:29 UTC
Last Updated On:15-Mar-2007 00:33:26 UTC
Expiration Date:15-Mar-2007 05:21:29 UTC
Sponsoring Registrar:Key-Systems GmbH (R48-AFIN)
Status:PENDING DELETE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE

It was dropped 19 april 2007 (on 35th day from expiration date).

You all guys can check these rules on the domain HUMOUR.co.in,
it is to expire in two days after tomorrow.

Domain Name:HUMOUR.CO.IN
Created On:18-Mar-2005 01:36:44 UTC
Last Updated On:18-Mar-2007 00:33:42 UTC
Expiration Date:18-Mar-2007 01:36:44 UTC
Sponsoring Registrar:Key-Systems GmbH (R48-AFIN)
Status:PENDING DELETE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE

Hope this info will help forum members some.. I did not reveal a mystery,
but some people believe it is just like insider information, because it is not listed on
Registry.IN website.


I believe there is no public list of expiring .IN/.CO.IN domains, maybe some forum members have their own lists.

or maybe some resellers have access to .IN/.CO.IN zone files, so they can scan them and produce such list... I doubt whether official registry will compile such list for us.

How do you get access to IN/.CO.IN zone files
