Why "cheap" domains often aren't cheap
Many registrars advertise a low first-year price then win back every rupee and more on renewal, upcharges and transfer fees.
Bait-and-switch first-year pricing
Advertised at ₹499. You register, feeling smart. Year 2 renewal jumps to ₹1,299 a 2.6x increase. You are locked in, transfer is a hassle, and they profit on renewal.
The hidden upcharges
WHOIS privacy +₹150/yr, DNS hosting +₹100/yr, email forwarding +₹50/yr, transfer-out ₹250 fee, admin fee +₹50/yr every one of these is free with HostCloud.
The renewal trap
Register a domain for ₹500, forget to check the renewal price, and it auto-renews at ₹1,200. You are stuck transfer takes 7 days. They count on you not noticing.
The transfer lock
Want to move away? They require an "authorization code" as a delay tactic, charge a transfer fee, and apply a 60-day lock after registration. Leaving is made painful on purpose.
