The .in TLD is managed by National Internet Exchange of India (NIXI), which is responsible for the registry operations and maintaining the zone file.

Abstract

India's country code has expanded alongside the national internet economy, reaching approximately 2.4 million registrations since its delegation in 1989. The National Internet Exchange of India operates the registry, and applicants anywhere may register — no Indian presence is required. The two-letter string doubles as the English preposition 'in', a coincidence that has made the extension a frequent choice for domain hacks with no connection to the country.
