Hello,

• 10th Certificate Use : If your name on the GATE application differs from your current name, using a 10th certificate as a name change document might not be enough, unless the name on the 10th certificate matches the corrected version.
• Name Consistency : Ensure the 10th certificate shows the exact name you want on the application. If it doesn’t, additional documents (e.g., an affidavit or a gazette notification) may be needed.
• Consult Guidelines : Refer to GATE’s official guidelines for acceptable name change documents.
• Verification : Contact GATE authorities or check FAQs for confirmation on acceptable documents for name correction.

Hope it helps !

Hello aspirant

If you want to change your name in Gate application form and it is asking to upload the name change document then you must upload the document that have same name you want to get in Gate application form.

If your tenth Std certificate shows the name that you want to be in Gate application form then you can upload your class x certificate.
