If you are a domainer then you would obviously understand the what a LLLL stands for, just in case you are new to domainer’s terminology, LLLL is any four alphabet domain.
Domainers like to classify domains for multiple reasons, and in the case of LLLL.IN there are various categories. To try and explain the different LLLL.IN types, I would have to break this out into multiple posts. In this post, I’ll list out the common types of LLLL.IN names and in the subsequent parts go into the details of those types. These are the different kinds of LLLL.IN names:
CVCV: In these names, C stands for consonants and V for vowels. Examples of these are CASA.in, BIWI.in, SOTI.in etc.
VCVC: Like CVCV above, examples are EBAC.in, OSAR.in, EDOC.in etc.
ABBB: In this case, A is any alphabet and B is any alphabet that is NOT A and repeated three consecutive times. Examples are BCCC.in, CEEE.in, AHHH.in OIII.in.
AAAB: Like above, A is any alphabet repeated three consecutive times and B is any alphabet which is NOT A. Examples are BBBC.in, CCCE.in, DDDE.in, OOOK.in etc.
ABAB: Like above, A is any letter of the alphabet and the next alphabet B (not A) comes after it. The same letter A comes again and finally ends with B. Examples are DCDC.in, OKOK.in, FIFI.in etc.
ABBA: A is any letter of the alphabet and the next alphabet B (not A) comes after it twice and ends with A. Examples are ACCA.in, DOOD.in, KAAK.in etc.
AABB: A is any letter of the alphabet repeated twice and B is any letter that is NOT a repeated twice. Examples are BBSS.in, OOAA.in, UUTT.in
CHIPs: These are names which do not contain any vowels and the letter v. Examples are DFRT.in, GHSS.in, JKLP.in etc.
Repeating Letters: These are names where ALL the four letters are the same. Examples are BBBB.in, DDDD.in OOOO.in etc.
Western Premiums: Names which contain these letters only — ABCDEFGHILMNOPRST
Indian Premiums: Same as western premiums above but also including the letters K and V.
Now each of these types is NOT mutually exclusive, for example, a four letter name like DDDD.in, can be a CHIP as well repeating. Similarly, RURU.in can be a CVCV and ABAB name.

Summary
On India’s 69th Independence Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a campaign from the ramparts of the Red Fort which he named “Startup India” and on 16 January 2016, exactly after the five months of his announcement, he launched the “Startup India” campaign from the Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi. The organizer of “Startup India” campaign is Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP). Startup India has two other branches – “Standup India” (promoting entrepreneurship among SCs and STs) and “Deen Dayal Upadhyay Swaniyojan Yojana” (rural India’s version of Startup India).
What is a Startup?
Startup is an entity, working towards innovation and development driven by technology or intellectual property, with annual turnover not exceeding INR 25 crore in any preceding financial year and incorporated or registered in India not prior to five years.
What is the Objective of Startup India?
The prime aim of the Startup India campaign is to encourage startups with job creation by promoting bank finances, restricting role of States in policy domain, providing hassle-free work environment and to get rid of “License Raj”. The main intention behind this flagship initiative of the Government of India is to create a strong eco-system which will nurture the budding startups to promote innovation that will drive sustainable economic growth and which will further generate large scale employment opportunity.
What was the need for Startup India Initiative?
Indian economy has seen a lot of crests and troughs since the period of Indus Valley Civilization. There are ample evidences to show that during the ancient periods like that of the Indus Valley Period, India’s economy and trade was very prosperous and the reason behind this prosperity was that there were least shackles in the path of economic growth. Economic hurdles became more prominent with the passage of time when different rulers ruled over the Indian sub-continent and it approached at its worst level during the British rule.
When India became a republic after its independence, it adopted a socialist-inspired economic model having elements of capitalism which further suppressed economic growth for several decades. From 1950s to 1980s, the economic growth rate of India stagnated at around 3.5% which was termed as “Hindu rate of growth” by an Indian economist Raj Krishna. After a marathon policy-making process, India devised newer policies in 1990s which was termed as “economic liberalization” and these policies boosted the economic growth to some extent, however, the desired results were still awaited as India was still at the bottom in the list of ease of doing business.
In 2014, after the establishment of NDA Government at the centre, either earlier policies were redrafted or some newer policies were introduced to which “Startup India” is an add-on. According to a report by NASSCOM, India has emerged as the youngest Startup nation in the world with over 72% of founders being less than 35 years old and with over 4200 Startups, India has emerged as world’s third largest base for the Startups and to cash this demographic dividend, the concept of “Startup India” was envisaged by the Government of India.
Action Plan of Startup India
The architecture of this Flagship scheme seems quite robust, however, it is in its embryonic stage and hence it requires proper nourishment to develop in a healthy adult and that will only be possible by the effective implementation of the embedded features of this campaign-cum-mission i.e. “Startup India”.
In this rather unconventional post, I’ll discuss Indian PM’s “Make In India” initiative, the “Digital India” initiative and how NIXI fits into the scheme of things.
What PM Modi’s “Make in India” initiative is about?
The first reference of Make in India was made by the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi in his maiden speech from the ramparts of the Red Ford in New Delhi from where he appealed all the people world-over, “Come, make in India”, “Come, manufacture in India” and just after 40 days of it, he launched it on 25th September 2014. As a comprehensive set of nation-building initiatives, the “Make in India” programme has been devised to transform India into a global manufacturing hub.
What was the need of Make in India?
In the year 2013, India recorded its lowest growth rate in a decade, the beam of BRICS nations had dimmed, and India was tagged with the so-called “Fragile Five”. It became a subject of debate among the Global investors that whether the investment to the world’s largest democracy was a risk or opportunity. To conclude, India was on the brink of severe economic failure.
Objectives of Make in India
Its primary purpose is to encourage national as well as multi-national companies to manufacture in India. Another main goal is to focus on skill enhancement and job creation in 25 sectors of the economy. The initiative also aims to achieve a high level of standards and minimum impact on the environment.
Targets
The following targets have been cited as the achievable objectives in the Make in India programme:
What is the plan?
The make in India programme incorporates a comprehensive plan to attract the national and multinational investors by formulating some attractive policies like – ease of doing business, enhancing the limits of FDI, safeguarding the intellectual property rights, labour reforms, land reforms, creation of economic zones like Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) and many more.
Sectors
The main focus of the Make in India programme is in the following 25 sectors of the economy:
Except for News Media (26%), Defence (49%) and Space (74%), in all the other sectors 100% FDI is permitted.
In a nut-shell, Make in India programme is a litmus test for the economic upheaval of the country. It also envisages the ethics of manufacturing as the PM Modi visions in his slogan – “Zero Defect, Zero Effect” which signifies that the mechanism of production wherein products have no defects, and the process of manufacturing has zero adverse ecological and environmental effects.
