Sorry to hear that,

Grace period only applied to surrender your passport once you are naturalise before you make any travel arrangements.

You would have to pay £145 per trip so would be £300 for onwards and return.

You'll find all the useful information on this link below along with the process.

Don't worry. Mine took 10 weeks.

Its now 9th week and Still no payment has been take.NCS are involved and they will contact Senior case work which should get in touch with me for payment in the next 3 weeks, 1 week is over 2 more week to wait. Lets see what will happen.

Its from the date of Naturalisation, best to get your British passport to avoid confusion at Indian High commission when you surrender your passport or apply for OCI.

Sorry to hear that,

First of all Why did you get a letter for biometric for a 2 year old anyway.

Must be send in an error.

I have emailed them and had nothing what so ever.

Not sure if they do check or not.
