My father wants to apply for OCI/PIO

He was born in India and came to the UK in 1959, travelling on his Indian passport. When he took British citizenship, the home office never returned his Indian passport to him. This means he cannot apply for a surrender certificate.

Problem is he does not have his birth certificate.

What would be the documents he needs to apply for OCI/PIO?

HCI London Website wrote:Applicants who have held an Indian passport, and obtained foreign nationality before May 2010, but are unable to produce the same for surrender for any reason (lost/misplaced/submitted to UK Home Office long time back) are required to furnish a notarised affidavit in original from UK stating the facts about their Indian passports.
