A legally valid duplicate of your lost document in hand — backed by a police complaint (or acknowledged report), a notarised loss affidavit, and a published newspaper notice that closes off misuse claims.
What's included in this bundle
Each of the steps below is a full sub-service. In this bundle, Sevantay handles every one of them for you — in the right sequence.
Police complaint / FIR guidance
We help you file a non-cognisable report or FIR at the right Bangalore police station for the document you lost and hand-hold the process.
Lost document affidavit
Drafted on Karnataka stamp paper and notarised — states the circumstances of the loss and absolves you of misuse.
Newspaper notice
Published in Times of India and one Kannada daily (Vijaya Karnataka / Prajavani) to legally declare the loss.
Duplicate application filing
Duplicate application filed with the relevant issuing authority (passport office, RTO, sub-registrar, UIDAI or similar).

Bangalore-specific notes
Bangalore City Police accept non-cognisable reports (NCRs) online via the Bangalore One portal for most lost documents, making the first step faster than in smaller cities. Sub-registrar offices in Bangalore issue certified copies of lost sale deeds on payment of a nominal fee and submission of the NCR + loss affidavit. Sevantay partners are familiar with the document-specific requirements at each issuing authority.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an FIR or just a non-cognisable complaint?
For most lost document cases (PAN, Aadhaar, RC, DL, passport, property documents) a non-cognisable report (NCR) is sufficient. For suspected theft or fraud, an FIR is needed. We advise based on your situation.
Can you recover a lost original sale deed?
Yes. Lost property sale deeds require the full workflow plus a certified copy issued by the sub-registrar office where the deed was originally registered. We run the entire process end-to-end.
How soon can I get a duplicate PAN card?
Once the affidavit and newspaper notice are in place, a duplicate PAN can be issued in 10–15 days via the NSDL portal. Sevantay handles the online application.
Is newspaper publication mandatory for all lost documents?
Not mandatory for Aadhaar or PAN — but strongly recommended for passport, property documents and educational certificates. It also protects you legally if the document is misused before the duplicate arrives.
