Apply online at mcgm.gov.in. Birth records after the year 1996 are available in the computer system at the ward office, but the records prior to 1996 may be available in the physical files.
2. How can I check the records and my information?
Please input the Registration Number, a number provided to you by the Hospital/ Nursing Home/ Maternity home; for searching your Registration record in the system at mcgm.gov.in.
