What is the procedure for changing name in Bigul Account?

To convert securities from electronic form to physical form, submit the following documents:

The name on the Bigul account is fetched from the Income Tax Department (ITD) and not from the documents submitted to open an account because of which the name may differ between the Bigul account and the documents submitted. To update the name on the account as per the submitted documents, clients must first update the name on the ITD.

After the name is updated on the ITD, certain documents must be couriered to Bigul. The signature on these documents must match the signature provided while opening an account.
