The procedure to changing name involves the following 3 steps.

  1. Create an affidavit for change of name. In the case of a minor, the applicant is the guardian (Father/Mother) and the affidavit needs to be provided by the legal guardian.

  2. Publish about the name change in Newspaper

  3. Notify it in State Gazette. For notification in State Gazette, you need to provide the following documents.

    • An undertaking duly signed by the guardian.
