You cannot change surname of your daughter in birth certificate 

2) even if you are divorced and have custody of your daughter you need husband consent to change child surname 

3) only then can you have your surname in child passport 

1.  It will not be possible for you to change surname of your child without consent of biological father of child. 

2. If you still want to change name of your child then you have to file suit against father to change surname of your child. 

3. If father gives consent then name can be changed without court proceeding through name change process by gazette notification.

1. Divorce brings the legal relationship between spouses to and end, not between parents and children.

2. Your ex husband continues to be the biological father of your daughter for all legal and practical reasons. However, now the single parent can apply for the passport of his/her child with his/her name if the custody has been awarded to you and there is no case regarding divorce/marital dispute/custody of the child pending in any court.

3. If your application is not processed then you may file a Writ Petition in the High Court.

1. Well   change of surname in birth certificate may not be possible without consent of father. 

2. Hence you better make a affidavit affirmed from a first class judicial magistrate and then make a newspaper publication. 

3. Passport authority does act on the basis of affidavit and court order which you have. 

Yes, that could be possible that your daughter's surname will be same as like yours.

Change of surname and correction of surname is different thing. First apply for update of surname at municipal office on the basis of sole custody order of court, short and fastest. Apply online else No option till lock down.

But if you want to have only changed surname on passport than for that you need to file a declaration suit in the civil court. 

Madam,

You have not mentioned the age of the child (daughter). If the child is minor (in age), you may easily change her surname by making one affidavit of name of change and have the newspaper promulgation. After that, you need to have gazette publication and then that name will be used everywhere. You may not need to have birth certificate with changed name. And after having the name change as suggested, you may apply for and get the passport on the name as decided by you. If need not to be in hurry and you may get the work done related to affidavit and newspaper publication in one or 02 days after lockdown is over. Then you may approach for gazette publication.

Madam,

If you go by suggestions given by me, you are not required to move to Delhi, rather the same work can be done from Bangalore itself. You are suggested till lockdown and get the things done when lockdown is relaxed or ends. The passport with new name (your surname) will be fully possible. it is suggested that the authorities at registrar office may also ask you for the reason and documents for changing name on birth certificate. So the process of affidavit, newspaper publication and gazette notification will be necessary. It is suggested that this work may be done at any place i.e. your hometown or at Bangalore and also passport can be applied from any address. Process is very simple. For affidavit, you need to visit some court premises or some notary and get this work done in not more than 01 to 02 hours. Do carry the original as well as photocopy of documents, but don't show the original to anyone except Notary and until asked. Then you may visit and newspaper, advertisement agency and get the notice of name change advertised. Do buy and preserve the newspaper in sufficient copies and then approach govt publication office for gazette publication of your area for gazette publication. The gazette notification may take some time, but finally the work will be done.
