  Did you want to move it to another WordPress.com blog or transfer it to another registrar?

  the new domain will be a domain registered via wordpress.com. the current domain will be moved to another, i believe, non-wordpress blog. thanks.

  There are a few different options, and it depends on what the non-wordpress blog hosting requirements are. Can you find out where makerfaireindia.com will be hosted in the future and what their DNS settings requirements are? Once we know that, we can provide the correct steps for your situation.
