What are Indian-language domain endings?

They are internationalised top-level domain names written in Indian scripts. The guide lists script-specific examples and their ASCII forms; confirm that your registrar supports the exact ending and name.

Is .bharath the same as .भारत?

No. .भारत is the Devanagari-script domain ending. “Bharath” can be used as a transliteration in conversation, but a Latin-letter .bharath extension should not be assumed to be the same domain.

How can I check if an Indian domain name is available?

Use a registrar’s live search and review the exact spelling, eligibility rules, first-term price and renewal terms. The examples on this page are informational and do not show live availability.

Internationalised domain names

Indian-language domain endings

Internationalised domain names (IDNs) allow domain labels to use scripts beyond basic Latin characters. These examples are country-code top-level domains recorded in the IANA Root Zone Database. The matching ASCII form is shown as a technical reference.

Script / language	Domain ending	ASCII form (punycode)	Registration note
Hindi Devanagari	.भारत	`xn--h2brj9c`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.
Telugu Telugu	.భారత్	`xn--fpcrj9c3d`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.
Kannada Kannada	.ಭಾರತ	`xn--2scrj9c`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.
Malayalam Malayalam	.ഭാരതം	`xn--rvc1e0am3e`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.
Gujarati Gujarati	.ભારત	`xn--gecrj9c`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.
Tamil Tamil	.இந்தியா	`xn--xkc2dl3a5ee0h`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.
Bengali Bengali	.ভারত	`xn--45brj9c`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.
Assamese Assamese	.ভাৰত	`xn--45br5cyl`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.

Urdu Urdu	.بھارت	`xn--mgbbh1a71e`	Confirm that the registrar offers this exact ending and the desired name.

“.Bharath” is sometimes used as a Latin transliteration in conversation. The official extension should be entered in its exact script—for example, Hindi .भारत—and should not be confused with a Latin-letter .bharath domain.

Make the choice useful

What is the value of a local or language-specific domain?

Recognisable local identity

A .IN name can make an India-focused web address easy to recognise when it is part of a consistent brand.

A name in your audience’s script

An IDN can let people use a familiar script in the domain label. Keep a simple Latin alternative available for places where typing or sharing Unicode is inconvenient.

Clearer campaign and community links

A concise domain can be easier to remember on ads, business cards and local-language materials. Test pronunciation, spelling and copy-and-paste before you commit.

An extension alone does not guarantee trust, reach or higher search rankings. Your name, website quality, audience fit and ability to maintain the registration matter too.

A quick checklist

Before you register

Check the exact spelling and a few sensible alternatives.
Confirm first-term and renewal prices, registration period and any eligibility rules.
Check who will control the registrar account and its recovery email.
For an IDN, test the name in browsers, messaging apps, forms and the email workflows you use.
Review trademark and naming conflicts before using a name for your business.
