.ಭಾರತ domain extension

.ಭಾರತ is the Kannada script country code top level domain for India. It is managed by the National Internet eXchange of India (NIXI), the same organization that runs .in and other Indian language TLDs. This domain is part of a set of eight internationalized domain names representing India in various local scripts. Registration is open to individuals and organizations with a valid connection to India, following the same eligibility rules as .in. The domain was delegated in April 2016 and went live in June 2017, giving Kannada speakers a native script address on the internet.

The .ಭಾರತ domain was delegated to NIXI on 18 April 2016 as part of a broader initiative to introduce eight Indian language TLDs. The actual delegation report was published on 9 June 2017, marking the operational launch of these script based domains.
