The time duration for Gazette name change takes around 10-15 days.

If you have changed your name by notification in official gazette you should use the new name 

you should change name in your official documents as soon as possible 

No need , if you want to carry old name. Just use that only and dont make any change in any documents and keep addressing you same name.

Dont declare new name anywhere and keep the notification lock.

immediatley you can apply for name change in other documents. its ok that you do not change.

- After notification , it is not mandatory to change the new name , it depends on you, which name you want to carry.

- Notification is self declaration for changing the name etc , hence if you want to carry the old name , then you can carry the same legally.

- However, if you want to comply the notification , then its time limit is 4 to 6 week only. 

The name change episode is pending. 

The name is as controlled

No after gazette notification you have to use your new name . There is no time prescribed as such but at first instance and available opportunity without delay it should be done.

It is up to you to use the changed name after notification or to continue with the old name itself by not effecting the notification 

There is no time limit for that however you cannot change the name at a belated stage which may raise suspicions about your activity for changing the name at a later stage.

1. No you cannot keep previous name after name change through gazette notification.

2. Name change should be done in all documents in which it is possible for modification as soon as possible.

Dear Sir,

Once your statement is published in the official Gazette, your name change process comes to an end, and now you can enjoy your new name.
