The Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has released new rules for resolving a variety of student concerns, including name changes and other credentials in the statement of marks, grade cards, and provisional certificates.

“The request of students for correction in the names, spelling, father’s name, guardian’s name, address printed in the statement of marks and certificates after competition of programme will also be entertained even though the degree certificate has already been issued.” according to the notification

Similarly, from the first convocation to the 30th convocation, a cost of Rs 1500 would be levied for document revisions.

Further Notification stated that “However, if it is established that there is mistake in name etc on part of the university, no fee for this purpose will be charged from the students. The students will have to return the grade card/ provisional and degree certificate, if issued with the previous name.”
