in my 10th marksheet i dont have my surname but in my college (graduation) i have my surname as it was compulsory. So is there will be any problem in future?
Dear student,
Yes it can cause you alot of problems as you full names is an identity of you as a whole person on that marksheet. Otherwise it won't be considered as yours since the data is missing. So please correct your certificate as quick as possible. KEEP all your documents with all the correct and necessary information.
10th board marksheets are mainly used for age verification but sometimes 10th and 12th marksheets are needed for name verification also.
Steps for name change in educational certificates-

newspaper
- get it notified in the official gazette of the state you reside in
- Now comes the part where your documents will be verified by the Department of Commerce and Transport secretary . For this, you will need to send-
- 1. A letter to the secretary stating that you want t ochange your name and request him/her to allow you to do that.
- 2. The deed changing name form.
- 3. At least 2 copies of local newspaper, which published your name.
- 4. Attested copy of the affidavit.
- 5. A copy of your present identity (PAN card, voter ID card, passport, etc).
- After receiving approval from the secretary, you will have to submit it to the local gazette office. You will also have to pay a fee for the office to publish it in the newspaper.
