What Is a Legal Name Change?

What Is a Legal Name Change? A legal name change is the official process of updating your identity across all government and private records in India. The process is governed by the Department of Publication and involves three core steps: notarized affidavit preparation, a newspaper advertisement, and a Gazette of India notification. Once published, the Gazette notification is universally accepted by Aadhaar, PAN, passport, banks, schools, and courts as proof of your new legal name.
Our name change consultation service online guides you through every step, ensuring your application is error-free and compliant with current government norms.
