How to change my name on the Upstox account?

To update the name on your Upstox account, you’ll need to follow the steps below. This process requires submitting physical copies of specific forms and supporting documents via courier.


Note:

  • Please submit each request on a single modification form, and avoid combining multiple request types on the same form. This will help us process your requests efficiently.
  • Please fill out a separate form for each request. Don’t include different kinds of requests on the same modification form. For example do not submit Name and Signature modification using one form, use 2 different forms.
