About this template
What is this template?
This is a sworn affidavit used in Indian administrative or legal proceedings to clarify business identity and ownership. It is not a business registration form or a partnership agreement, but a defensive declaration to prevent the merging of distinct business files.
When should you use it?
Use this when an Indian electricity department or authority incorrectly attributes the ownership of a third-party firm to you because of a shared name. Use a Letter of Indemnity instead if you are merely clarifying a clerical error that does not involve a formal report of ownership.
Who it's for
- a partner in an Indian firm misidentified as the owner of a similarly named trading business
- an individual needing to contest a report claiming they trade electrical goods at a specific location
