Today, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Named and Numbers organization revealed a massive list of what companies had applied to take control of top-level domain names.

Bharti Airtel has applied for the ".airtel" top level domain to use for its various services such as mobile, landlines ,DTH etc.


News.com reports that each applicant had to pay a whopping $185,000 per string, plus an unspecified amount of extra money in order to show the ICANN that they could in fact run a high level domain name. The ICANN will look at all of the applications, including areas of trademark and copyright ownership. The review process is expected to take a while; the first new top level domain names may not go live until sometime in 2013.
