The International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is a unique numeric commercial book identifier.
An ISBN is assigned to each edition and variation (except reprintings) of a book. For example, an e-book, a paperback and a hardcover edition of the same book would each have a different ISBN. The ISBN is 13 digits long if assigned on or after 1 January 2007, and 10 digits long if assigned before 2007. The method of assigning an ISBN is nation-based and varies from country to country, often depending on how large the publishing industry is within a country.
The initial ISBN configuration of recognition was generated in 1967 based upon the 9-digit Standard Book Numbering (SBN) created in 1966. The 10-digit ISBN format was developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and was published in 1970 as international standard ISO 2108 (the SBN code can be converted to a ten digit ISBN by prefixing it with a zero).
Occasionally, a book may appear without a printed ISBN if it is printed privately or the author does not follow the usual ISBN procedure; however, this can be rectified later.
International standards are standards developed by international standards organizations. International standards are available for consideration and use worldwide. One prominent organization is the International Organization for Standardization.
International standards may be used either by direct application or by a process of modifying an international standard to suit local conditions. The adoption of international standards results in the creation of equivalent, national standards that are substantially the same as international standards in technical content, but may have (i) editorial differences as to appearance, use of symbols and measurement units, substitution of a point for a comma as the decimal marker, and (ii) differences resulting from conflicts in governmental regulations or industry-specific requirements caused by fundamental climatic, geographical, technological, or infrastructural factors, or the stringency of safety requirements that a given standard authority considers appropriate.

The process for applying for an ISBN in India is through the website www.isbn.gov.in. This website was launched on April 7th, 2016. The site is functional but barely, in this video I show some of the typical challenges encountered while applying for ISBN. Overall, I would rate it as a work in progress. The site has its shortcomings, but it works. I was able to get an ISBN within six weeks of applying.

They just won't do it. It doesn't fit into their world they work with distributors. Book need to be able to be returned if they don't sell and you can't return books to CreateSpace. I have had festivals and workshops order books. In that case they came through me and I gave them a good discount, good enough that I sold them outright with no return. That is what I would do, I don't want anything back. one way out. If you want to be in the book store business then you ...

I started talking about whether you need a publishing imprint, logo or 'button' for your book cover; but also talk about getting ISBNs, whether they should be registered to your publisher name (whether or not you even need one), and how to get a barcode made for free. (You can use the free tool on my site for that: http://www.bookcovers.creativindie.com).

I answer an irate email from a follower regarding buying #ISBNs. He bought 1 for an ebook he published. When he wanted to turn that ebook into a paperback, he thought he could use the same ISBN. Remember, you must buy an ISBN for the each format of your book. If you want to make your book The Thorns of Lillies into an ebook, paperback, hard cover, or audiobook, you must have a SEPARATE ISBN for each. If you wrote a book 10 years ago and you want to update the information to keep up with the times, you must use a SEPARATE ISBN. If you have a Thriller Series, each book in that series must have a separate ISBN Number. With that being said, NEVER, EVER, EVER buy JUT 1 ISBN, buy at LEAST 10. 1 ISBN will cost your $125, but $250 will get you 10. I can guarantee you that you will need more than 1...
