That's perfect, thank you and it makes sense. By any chance is there any link or official guidance which states the specific documentation for paid OCI renewal application submission? Would be good to keep it handy just in case VFS causes trouble. I am really very close to my travel date and can't ...

I travelled with only 28 days left on my Indian Passport and no issues at all. On checking with Air India, they confirmed that for India - UK flights the only thing that they are instructed to validate is whether the passport is valid at the time of travel.
I thought to mention my OCI collection experience in the forum. I have reached HCI at 10:30am on Tuesday. There were only two persons ahead of me. I handed over 4 passports and documents printing status. The OCI counter staff gave one token for 4 passports. It was over in 2 minutes (including ...

However this might not be the case with all HCI's. I thought, it takes 4-6 weeks for in person OCI application as the OCI is printed and sent off ...
