Description
The Name Change Process in India is a legally defined three-step procedure that grants you the official authority to adopt a new name. The main steps involve drafting a notarized affidavit, publishing an advertisement in local newspapers, and securing a Gazette Notification for Name Change from the Department of Publication. This final publication in the Name Change in Gazette (or Gazette for Name Change) is the primary legal proof required to update all your government ID documents. While the physical submission of documents is still an option, many states and service providers now offer assistance for an online Name Change process to simplify and speed up the formalisation of your new identity.
