Following are the stages for the domain to be available in the market after expiry:1) Renewal grace period for the first 36 days from the date of expiry.
2) Queued for deletion for 5-7 days
3) Redemption Grace period (Pending Delete Restorable) which stays for 30 days
4) Deletion phase which is 5-7 days wherein the domain gets deleted from the registry and is available for registration by anyone.
You can restore the domain in the Redemption Grace period for a higher cost. If you want the normal prices then you'll have to wait for the domain to be available in the market. Please note that domains can be booked by anyone once it is available in the market.

Exact wording and day counts for each stage can vary slightly by registrar and TLD, so always check your own domain's current status in the client area rather than assuming every domain follows an identical calendar.
If you want a particular expired domain back and the current registrant does not renew it, you generally cannot act until it reaches the later stages of this cycle, so plan around the real dates rather than the day it first shows as expired.
When in doubt about where a specific domain sits in this cycle, check its status in the client area directly rather than guessing from the date alone.
