Y dont u do just that. Is there a problem?Nevertheless,Bank should not ask for gazzette notification for such a minor change. Talk to senior officers there if they accept a simple affidavit along with other docs you spoke of, well and good. Else u may close your savings account and make sure you write this as reason in account closing letter. As regards ppf account you might have a problem while claiming deduction under IT.

But now in all my documents I have correct name but only in bank account name is incorrect. How can I make gezetted notification for this what reason I need to give to get gezette notification in Bangalore.

Got it.These private banks just say what they were taught at training.Just make a simple affidavit before a notary public that x and y are one and same person. Due to error in pan name was previously mentioned as x but now it has been rectified as y. All my other documents(name them) bear my actual name i.e. y. If they still dont change complain to the regional head office by email or letter. This is harrassmemt under pretext of due dilligence.
