In October 2006 Desipundit was on the verge of being discontinued as its founder and contributors were finding it difficult to spare time for the effort but an enormous feedback from the readers led to continuation of the website.

The site shut down on the midnight of June 20, 2010 after the founder decided to discontinue the site for undisclosed reasons. The site archive was deleted and visitors to the site were greeted by a landing page informing of the site's closure.
