Dear,
School authorities have no right to change your name in the marksheet, certificate and others. You have to apply before the board from where such had been issued.
After making changes of name from the board and council , it will be better to insert your new name in the college.
In future you require to make an affidavit before the 1st class Magistrate declaring your old and new name is of one same and identical person.
Thanks

Hello, first of all please clearly state why you require to change the name. If there is spelling mistake or title change you may be required to execute an affidavit before the first class magistrate, which will have to be produced before appropriate authority. But change in previous documents may be possible, but in all further applications you have to produce the affidavit as proof of your name that you use.

Yes, you can apply with your changed name in your college, where you need to produce the affidavit.

No, your changed name will be taken as your genuine name, but you have to use your new name in every application to effect the same.

You also need to publish your new name. For further enquiry you may contact.

Best of luck for your upcoming exams.
