    • If the domain name is registered through Dinsol.Co.In and is using the Name Servers required to use the DNS Service, these Name Servers will be displayed for informational purpose.
       
    • If the domain name is not registered with Dinsol.Co.In, the Name Servers required to use the DNS Service will be displayed. You need to point your domain name to these Name Servers through the domain name management console provided by your domain name registration service provider.
