There are different procedures to change. 
1st - You need to make an affidavit stating the name.
2nd - You'll have to request the office of Birth & Death to Re-issue a Birth Certificate (This might require you submitting the old certificate).
3rd - You'll have to take out a notification in any Reputed Newspaper stating the change in name.
4th - You'll have to apply to SSC/10th board to reissue a new certificate indicating the new Name. (Supported by Gazette Notification & Affidavit & Birth Certificate & News Paper Clipping) 
5th - You'll have to apply to Inter/12th board to reissue a new certificate indicating the new Name.(Supported by 10th/SSC Certificate & Gazette Notification & Affidavit & Birth Certificate & News Paper Clipping)
6th - You'll have to apply to University to reissue a new certificate indicating the new Name.(Supported by 10th/SSC Certificate & Inter/12th Certificate 


Also, if you need to take order from the court then there is a short and swift provision in specific relief act, under section 34 you can file declaration suit and make UP. board and UPTU as a defendant party and prove before that your name has changed and adduce all evidence thereof then court shall pass an decree and declare your new name. Thereafter you can give application in respective board for issue duplicate certificate with changed name.
