Is the above info correct? Should I register భారత్.net etc? Thanks.
இந்தியா is transliteration of India in Tamil . Most commonly used.

The Indian Name for India in tamil is Bharatham (பாரதம்).
Bharatha (பாரத) is used to refer to India in a sentence but not as an individual word.
Example பாரத ரத்னா (Bharatha Ratna)
பாரத நாடு etc...
