Deadline for surrendering Indian passport

[patkt]

Hello,
I am a US citizen of Indian descent. I became US citizen 3 years back and till then was an Indian citizen with Indian passport. I want to surrender the Indian passport in New York embassy now as is required by the Indian government. I would like to know if there is a deadline to surrender the passport?

Thanks,
patkt

No deadline for surrendering Indian passport as of today, but we never know about Indian Government.

Technically one should surrender Indian passport within 90 days of acquiring the citizenship, thereafter you can do but chances are there they will ask you to pay extra money as a penalty
