What is the Redemption Grace Period (RGP)?

RGP is a service that allows the registrar to restore a .IN domain name that has been unintentionally deleted. RGP is a 30-day period that begins after a registrar requests that the registry delete a domain name. When a domain name is in RGP, its status is listed as PENDING DELETE RESTORABLE and HOLD. When a domain name enters RGP, it is removed from the .IN zone file. As a result, any Internet services served by the domain name will be disabled (e.g., e-mail or a Web site). The registrant must act IMMEDIATELY if he or she wants to restore the domain name via the sponsoring Domain Registrar. After the 30-day RGP, the domain name enters the Redemption Hold Period (RHP).
