Myth
You need to be a registered non-profit to get a .org.
Fact
Anyone can register a .org, for any purpose.
Nobody asks for a 12A or 80G certificate or a trust deed. The extension simply carries the meaning, so it suits causes best.
What is a .org domain?
.org is one of the original generic top-level domains, created in 1985 for organisations that didn't fit .com or .net. It's run by Public Interest Registry, a non-profit created by the Internet Society, and more than 12 million .org names are registered today.

FAQ
.org questions
What people ask before registering a .org.
Do I need to be a non-profit to register a .org?
No. Anyone can register a .org, for any purpose, and nobody asks for proof of status. It suits causes and communities best because that's what people expect to find on one.
Who runs the .org extension?
Public Interest Registry, a non-profit created by the Internet Society, under a contract with ICANN.
Can a business use a .org?
It can, but visitors may expect a cause or community rather than a shop. For a business, .com or your country's extension is usually clearer; a .org works well for a company's foundation or open-source work.
Is .org good for SEO?
Yes. .org is generic like .com, so Google doesn't tie it to a country, and it gets no penalty or bonus for the extension. Rankings come from the content.
What does a .org cost after the first year?
The first year is an offer (₹1,249, normally ₹1,799). Renewals are ₹1,999 a year incl. 18% GST today. The renewal price is shown before you pay, and we email reminders before the domain expires.
Can I move my .org to HostMentor?
Yes, once it's past the 60-day lock after registration or a previous transfer. Get the auth code from your current registrar and start the transfer from your dashboard. It costs ₹1,799 incl. 18% GST and adds a year to the registration.
