What Exactly Is a Change of Name Advertisement and Why Does Delhi NCR Require Two Newspapers?
A newspaper change of name advertisement is a legally-required public announcement that you are changing your name. It is the most important step in the name change process - until you notify the government of your name change through a newspaper ad, no government office (PSK), bank, government agency, or educational institution in India will allow you to change your name.
The requirement of publishing a change of name in a newspaper is based on the principles of transparency and accountability. By publishing a name change newspaper advertisement, you are giving formal notice to the public, your creditors, your colleagues, and all institutions that you have changed your name. This gives anyone with a legitimate interest the opportunity to oppose your name change before it is finalised.
In Delhi NCR, your name change ad must be published in two different newspapers - one national English newspaper and one local Hindi newspaper. The reason is that Delhi is a bilingual state and both English and Hindi are widely spoken in government offices and courts. Publishing the advertisement in both languages maximises public awareness and ensures acceptance at all government counters in NCR.
Our Delhi NCR package at ₹525 includes both publications at once, meaning you don't have to visit two newspaper offices, make two bookings, or receive two invoices.
Three Legal Steps for a Valid Name Change in Delhi NCR
Knowing exactly what to do before embarking on the process will save time, help you avoid common mistakes, and ensure your request is processed on the first attempt. Here's a step-by-step guide to the name change process in Delhi NCR.
Name Change Newspaper Ad for Passport — What PSK Delhi NCR Specifically Requires
The name change newspaper ad for passports is the most frequent request we receive from people in Delhi NCR. Here is the information that PSK offices in Delhi, Noida and Gurgaon require in your newspaper advertisement before they will approve your passport name change.
- Your newspaper advertisement must be published in two newspapers - one English national and one Hindi regional.
- Your old name, new name, father's/husband's name, and full Delhi NCR address must be mentioned in the ad.
- You must submit original newspaper clippings (not scanned copies, not PDFs, not photos) at your PSK appointment.
- The newspapers must be registered, widely read publications recognised by the Ministry of External Affairs and the PSK system.
Important Note for Delhi NCR residents: The Deed Poll Affidavit (Annexure E) that was mandatory before December 28, 2016, has been scrapped. Newspaper publication is now the most important document for all passport name change applications. Beware of agents who insist on the old Annexure E document - this is outdated information and may hinder your application.
Should You Consider a Times of India Name Change Ad for Delhi NCR?
This is often the first question we receive from customers in Delhi NCR. A Times of India name change advertisement is the most well-known brand and is accepted by every government, bank, and private entity in India. A name change ad in Times of India is especially useful if you are originally from a state other than Delhi NCR and need your name change accepted across multiple states simultaneously - for example, if you have property documents in Maharashtra, bank accounts in Karnataka, and educational certificates from Tamil Nadu.
However, if you need a name change newspaper ad solely for a passport application at PSK Delhi, PSK Noida, or PSK Gurgaon, then an equally valid and more cost-effective English national daily - such as The Pioneer or Financial Express - will serve the same legal purpose. Our goal is to provide you with the most affordable newspaper advertisement option that offers 100% legal coverage - without overcharging for a "prestigious" brand name that may not be necessary for your specific needs.
If you prefer a name change advertisement in Times of India for your Delhi NCR application, we can provide that too. Call us at 9699991326 for a quote on the Times of India combo package.

Standard Name Change Ad Format for Delhi NCR Newspapers
A valid change of name advertisement in a Delhi NCR newspaper must follow this format, accepted by all Passport Seva Kendras, banks, and government offices:
"I, [Old Full Name], S/o or D/o or W/o [Father's / Husband's Name], residing at [Complete Delhi / Noida / Gurgaon Address], hereby declare that I have changed my name from [Old Name] to [New Name] for all purposes permanently. All concerned authorities and the general public are requested to address me by my new name henceforth."
