As per the Examination Byelaws of CBSE, change in name of the student and/or the parent/guardian cannot be corrected/changed either while the student is in school or even after 10 years from the date on which CBSE issued its first document pertaining to the student.
Prior to change of name with CBSE, the concerned person needs to execute an affidavit stating the change of name and also publish in two local newspapers regarding the said change of name. The same needs to be published in the official gazette as well.
Now to change the name in the records of CBSE, the concerned person needs to make a formal written application which should be forwarded to CBSE by the last school he/she attends or attended. The application shall accompany the following documents;
a. Copy of the ads published in two local newspapers
b. Copy of the affidavit regarding change of name
c. Copy of the gazette notification
