From NIXI (India's NREN) August end ASN transfers, I see roughly 825(x2) ASN were handed out. From AS147316 till AS148966, see https://mirrors.de.sahilister.net/pub/ftp.ripe.net/ripe/asnames/asn.txt.

The number is interesting for me, as from my previous count (for https://blog.sahilister.in/2024/09/educational-and-research-institutions-with-own-asn-in-india/) the number as of now is less than 70 for education/research ASNs.

and the reason I got from a source for 2 AS allotments and I quote - "it's part of planning to allot /32 IPv6 to every institute and 1 or 2 ASN depends upon need ".
