About .co.in domains
.co.in sits under India's .in domain and is meant for commercial use, with "co" standing for company or commercial. It has been around for many years, and Indian customers recognise it from manufacturers, traders and long-running local businesses. If the .in or .com version of your brand is already taken, the .co.in is often still free.
It carries the same India signal as .in for search engines, so a well-built .co.in site can rank just as well for Indian searches. The trade-off is length: it is a few characters longer to type and say aloud, so keep the name before it short. Many businesses register .co.in alongside .in to protect their name and stop look-alike sites from appearing. The same NIXI rules apply as for every .in domain, including identity verification for each registrant.
Good to know
- Part of the .in family managed by NIXI. Despite the "commercial" label, you do not need to be a registered company.
- Open to Indian and foreign registrants. NIXI requires identity verification (eKYC), and non-residents are asked to state their purpose or business connection in India.
- Privacy and proxy services are not allowed for .in family domains, so registrant details must be accurate.
- Use a permanent email address you check regularly; disposable email services are not accepted and registry notices arrive by email.
Put a website on your .co.in domain

Yes. It is a long-established Indian commercial extension that customers trust, and it carries the same India signal as .in in search. Its main drawback is that it is slightly longer to type.
Anyone, in India or abroad. You do not need to be a registered company, but you must complete NIXI's identity verification.
Both are managed by NIXI and both target India. .in is shorter and more popular, while .co.in is labelled for commercial use and often has your preferred name available when the .in does not.
No. The extension is not a ranking penalty. A .co.in tells Google your site targets India, which helps for Indian searches but suits a global audience less well.
