IPv6 addresses launched in India

Indian Registry for Internet Names and Numbers (IRINN) has started issuing next version of internet addresses 'IPv6', which would make it easy for security agencies to identify each internet user. "The number of IPv6 addresses available is enormous. ISPs (Internet Service Providers) can allocate an IP address to their users. People can be easily identified if they are using IPv6," APNIC Director (Services and Operations) Sanjaya said at the roadshow for new version IPv6. 

APNIC, which is one of the five authorised bodies for issuing Internet addresses, has recognised Indian Registry for Internet Names and Numbers (IRINN) for issuing IP addresses in India. "We are issuing IPv6 addresses at up to 60 per cent less than prevailing rates in the ongoing soft launch period.  IRINN is issuing initial set-of IPv6 addresses in price range starting at Rs 21,999 compared to prevalent rate of around Rs 66,000 in Asia Pacific region.
