I am not sure if this is the right forum for this question but I hope it is...

I recently acquired US citizenship and would like to get OCI soon..
My question how do I renounce the Indian Citizenship?

I looked at the Indian embassy web site found no forms on the website.
I tried to call the embassy ...no one pickups the phone then it goes to the voice mail and it says mail box is full and can't leave any messages...

Is there any form to fill out to renounce Indian Citizenship ? any procedure to follow?
If yes, where can I get it and what all things I need to send with the passport?

Thanks a lot in advance,
 
I believe all you need to do is return your Indian passport to the nearest Indian consulate. If you ever got a new Indian passport in the US, there should be an entry in one of the back pages saying "warning: return this passport promptly if you acquire any other citizenship..."

I am told you could simply return it as part of the OCI application.

Cheers,
Prasad
