This data is taken from ministry of finance website "http://www.finmin.nic.in/the_ministry/dept_expenditure/cca/cca_exp_stat.asp". It is publicly available. You can also find info on http://cga.nic.in/default.aspx and on http://www.finmin.nic.in/the_ministry/dept_expenditure/cca/cca_exp_stat.asp Data available in pdf not excel. Data is not available in bulk for all things, though for some. To be conservative ive said no. Given the definition of spending I have changed the link to CGA as that is where detailed accounts are available to some degree of disaggregation. The ministy of finance has some but CGA would have more.

There is unrestricted access to the basic data. The interface of the websites is user friendly. The government website while registering for a company, also suggests whether that name is available or not and the probable names that can be chosen. also http://www.mca.gov.in/MCA21/Master_data.html Info only available via search not via download or bulk view

Two sites: http://www.indiapost.gov.in/pin/ http://data.gov.in/dataset/all-india-pincode-directory The data is available in CSV format and is updated on 22-Jul-2013. The data consists of pincodes along with post office information like address and postal code but does NOT include geographic boundaries or lat long information. The data can also be searched by location or pincode on 'http://www.indiapost.gov.in/'. The data is available completely and is from official source, i.e the site managed by National Informatics Center which is a government body. It is hard to say whether the post office address which forms each result could be connected to a lat/long location with other information as per the census requirements

There is no mention of the license applicable, so have marked it as NOT open.

While timetables for trains are commonly available, for other modes of transport we could do with more easily available information. The data provided is public, still there is a "captcha code" facility which mandates human intervention in the search process. Due the heavy web traffic these websites are slow functioning. Marked as "no bulk download" / "not easily machine readable" due to capcha Real time train data is easier to find than timetable data. Cannot find open licence. http://enquiry.indianrail.gov.in/ntes/ -- real time train information https://www.irctc.co.in/ - some train information
