You can file an affidavit and try to get it corrected from matriculation record
Since the date entered is incorrect you will have to seek a declaration decree from the competent civil court and furnish details establishing your correct date of birth through affidavits or paper publication inviting objections and simultaneously you can write a representation to the concerned authority of your matriculation board, but since you are raising an issue after a lapse of considerable time be prepared to furnish sufficient cause as to why you did not initiate the process earlier.
All the best.

No, after this much time you can not get the same corrected.

After 36 years your date of birth would not be changed in your school records without court orders
2) file writ petition in HC to direct Board change date of birth in your school records
You can change DOB as per medical records and get displayed in the Gazette, but on matric board certificate it won't be changed now.
1. After so long the board will not correct it.
2. You will have to file a suit for mandatory injunction against the education board to rectify the mistake.
First of all take R.T. I of your matriculation form and school record.
If they have inadvertently write 1963 then file a suit your date of birth will be corrected.
Have you any birth certificate?
On the basis of birth certificate , apply to concern board for correction. Court will not entertain you as cause arised decades ago and now you are applying for correction.
Yes, use birth certificate for correction if you don't have then gain it from MC of your birth place.
The dob in same cannot be corrected now, if you have birth certificate and DOB in same is correct you can make an affidavit supporting correct dob and mentioning wrong DOB in certificate.
You cannot get the date of birth corrected in the matriculation certificate at this stage.
What were you doing all these 37 years about this and why do you want to correct the matriculation certificate at this belated stage becasue it may not serve any purpose even if you are permitted to correct it, though it cannot be permitted.
