Hi soumak,

Welcome to the forum. Hope you will enjoy your stay here and contribute too.

NOw regarding Kaspersky keys being region locked, yes they are but only in one way. Its like you can use keys bought from countries like US or Canada to activate them in India but you cannot use keys bought from India to activate in USA.

THe reason for this is quite simple if you see at the pricing structure. In India, KIS is available for mere Rs. 600 approximately that,s just say $13.33. NOw compare that with US price of KIS. Its more than 60$ if you are not getting any discounts. For this reason and to stop guys misusing keys from countries like India to other countries, these keys are region locked.

Same logic applies to other kaspersky products.
