Example:-
qwe123@pilani.bits-pilani.ac.in
I think i just need to check if the "template ending" is present in the email address or not but the problem is where to check it in the allauth package

please use the term "Does not work" here on stackoverflow if and only if you want to attract downvotes. For all other situtions explain what happened such as an error message that came up – e4c5 Feb 09 '17 at 09:37

As far as I know, there isn't a direct way to do this in django-allauth. The best bet is to listen for the user_signed_up signal and disable an account that does not have the required email address format.
from allauth.account.signals import user_signed_up
from django.dispatch import receiver
@receiver(user_signed_up)
def after_user_signed_up(request, user):
if user.email.endswith('pilani.bits-pilani.ac.in'):
# do something for valid accounts
else :
user.is_active = False
user.save()
# raise SomeException
If you have more than one address pattern, you will need multiple if statements or possibly create a model for the allowed email address patterns.

usual place for signals handlers is in views.py, but it can also go in models.py too. For more info if needed http://stackoverflow.com/questions/40746137/post-save-signal-isnt-called/40883331#40883331 – e4c5 Feb 01 '17 at 17:33

There is no direct way to do it. But certainly there are few indirect ways. You can check using email header. From here you can get basic info about the email. You can store ip address and filter using that for a particular domain.
