Jharkhandnamechange.com Office Addresses in Ranchi and Delhi

What to Send on WhatsApp to Start a Gazette Name Change
Four things. Send them and we can tell you your route the same day.
One photo ID in the old name
Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID or Passport. A flat, straight scan or photo, all four corners visible, no glare.
The new name, typed
Exactly as you want it printed, including spacing and initials. "R Kumar", "R. Kumar" and "Rkumar" are three different names to a Government database.
Your district and situation
Where you live, and one line on why: marriage, spelling on a JAC certificate, a wholly new name, a child's name, a Government job.
The certificates, if it is a correction
If a name is wrongly written on a JAC, university or other certificate, send each one. The wrong spelling has to be quoted exactly as printed in the notice. Which service fits which case is on the services page.
That is enough for the route check. Address proof, two passport photographs, two witnesses' IDs and, where relevant, the marriage certificate or the child's birth certificate come later, once we have confirmed in writing that you need a gazette.
What Happens After You Contact Jharkhandnamechange.com
No pressure call, no payment link before the answer. This is the order.
| When | What we do | What you do |
|---|---|---|
| Same working day | Read your scans and tell you whether you need a gazette at all, which wording applies (change, public notice of a wrongly written name, or minor form), and the total cost as two lines: Government fee and our charge. | Nothing yet. Ask questions. |
| Once you say go | Send the exact affidavit and proforma text on WhatsApp for your written confirmation, letter by letter. | Read it aloud, check every spelling, reply "yes" or tell us what to change. |
| Day 1 to 7 | Arrange notarisation in your district, book one Hindi and one English daily with identical wording, collect the complete original pages. | Sign the affidavit before the notary. Pay the Government fee on BharatKosh in your name, or authorise us to make the payment in your name and keep the receipt. |
| Day 7 to 10 | Assemble the five-paper file, match the receipt to the request letter, deliver the file to Civil Lines in your name through the Delhi office. | Keep your originals and the scanned set we send you. |
| Day 30 to 45 | Watch Part IV weekly, download your PDF from egazette.gov.in the week it appears, send it with the record update checklist. | Update Aadhaar first, then PAN, bank, passport and the rest, in the order on the checklist. |
What the First Call Costs, and What Comes After
The first call: Rs 0
Route check, wording type and a two-line quote are free. If you do not need a gazette, you hear that and the conversation ends there.
Government fee: commonly Rs 1,100
Rs 1,100 for an adult, Rs 1,700 for a minor, Rs 1,350 for a public notice of a wrongly written name, paid on BharatKosh in your name. Revised each financial year and non-refundable, so we confirm the figure on the day.
Our charge: quoted per case
Always a separate line from the Government fee, and always told to you before any payment. Newspaper and notary costs are passed on at actual cost with receipts.
