How much does it cost?
A one-time affiliation application fee, plus an annual resource fee based on your approved address space.
Affiliation application fee
₹27,500
Plus applicable taxes. Charged to new affiliates whether or not resources are taken up immediately, except affiliates migrating from APNIC to IRINN.
Annual resource fee
Starts from ₹24,198.9
Your annual fee is based on the address space held in your account on your affiliation anniversary date.
How the annual fee is calculated
A new affiliate pays a one-time affiliation application fee of ₹27,500, plus the annual resource fee, which is calculated from the size of the approved IP address space. These fees are payable before you receive your resource delegation. Any discount offered applies to the resource fee only.
IPv4 component
27,500 × 1.35 (log2(number of addresses) − 8)
IPv6 component
24,198.9 × 1.35 (log2(number of /56 units) − 22)
The two components are not added together.
The IPv4 and IPv6 components are calculated separately, and the higher of the two amounts is chargeable as the annual affiliation fee. The base fee also acts as a minimum — an allocation smaller than the base size is still charged the base fee.
| Allocation | Units | Calculation | Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPv4 /24 | 256 addresses | 27500 × 1.35^(log2(256) − 8) |
₹27,500 |
| IPv4 /23 | 512 addresses | 27500 × 1.35^(log2(512) − 8) |
₹37,125 |
| IPv6 /48 | 256 × /56 | Base fee applies | ₹24,198.9 |
