You will have to send your passport. How can you travel without it?

What if I wont apply for british passport and travel on my old passport. Is it permitted? I am officially British Citizen from yesterday when I received Naturalisation certificate.

I am not sure about it but I have read here that Indian Citizens can travel on their Indian Passport for upto three months.
