Change of Name

Bharat Gala (Querist) 09 December 2008 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,

One person is known in his family as well in his school as Hansraj and now in his Business and in social circle he is known as Mr. Haresh.

My query is whether this Gentleman can keep his both the identity ?? Since he has his Personal Identity in the name of Hansraj, can he sign the legal documents in the name of Haresh ??

or should he make an application for change of Name in the state gazette and can use both his identity ??

Pls. advice.

Thanks in advance.

Bharat Gala.

There is no value of nickname in legal documentation.
write/sign with actual name. If he has any problem with original name he should change.
In general purposes he may also write 'Hansraj alias Haresh'
