Hello, I am thinking to install Windows 8 Enterprise 64-Bit on my Desktop. So as I went to Microsoft Website and then it gave me the Link to Downlload It.
Download Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation

But here it shows that the Windows Activation will expire after 90-Days. What does it mean by that? After 90-Days if my Windows Activation expire then how can I activate it with a Premium License because I can't see any link to buy product key for it.

So, Can anyone help me Please?

Enterprise Evaluation edition activates automatically with the built-in product key, but this edition expires after 90 days. It's for evaluation, and not for use beyond 90 days. If you have a license for Enterprise, you should know where to obtain the installation ISO. Hint: contact the company you bought the license from.

No, I don't have any type of license. I just want to install Windows 8 Enterprise on my Desktop Computer as currently it has Windows 7. So, I want to ask that After 90-Days what will happen? Will my windows be blocked? And if its Trail then there should be also way to get License to it. What is thet way? I want to know that and I want to install Windows 8 Enterprise because Windows 8 Pro is not available for Download and I want a Legit Copy so I want to install Windows 8 Enterprise and later activate it. So, How can I get the license key to activate it like Windows 8 Pro? I can't see any link over the internet to buy License.

So, Please Help.....

Let me restate this: Enterprise 90-day Evaluation is for evaluation. See also Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation FAQ You don't need it, if you want to use Windows 8 permanently.

because Windows 8 Pro is not available for Download
Indeed, it appears only Windows 8 Upgrade is available in India. You should click Live Chat at the top of the page and ask how to get Windows 8 Pro.

But can you give me at least 3 good reasons why you need Pro?

Evaluation is like a trial version, it means you will no longer have access to it, or be able to use it once that time period has expired.

As stated in the link provided:
The evaluation edition will expire and cannot be upgraded.
To upgrade, the evaluation must be uninstalled and a non-evaluation version of Windows must be re-installed from your original installation media.

After the 90 days it will cease to function and is of no value. You cannot purchase a key to reactivate it.

Enterprise is not sold to consumers. It's for volume license customers only. Unless you have Technet or MSDN you aren't going to be able to get a legit key to activate this version of Windows 8.
