"InScript (short for Indian Script) is the decreed standard keyboard layout for Indian scripts using a standard 104 or 105 key layout. This keyboard layout was standardized by the Government of India for inputting text in languages of India written in Brahmic scripts, as well as the Santali language, written in the non-Brahmic Ol Chiki script.[1] It was developed by the Indian Government and supported by several public and private organisations. This is the standard keyboard for 12 Indian scripts including Devanagari, Bengali, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Tamil and Telugu and others.

The InScript layout is built into most of the major operating systems including Windows (2000 and later), and in most Linux and Mac OS systems. It is also available in some mobile phones and (in the case of Tamil and Hindi) in Apple's iOS 5[citation needed] and higher. It is available in Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and higher. It is also available for Windows Mobile 5.x and 6.x through third parties."
