Sir,
You were born in 1978 in India (?) Your father was born in Chidambaram, India, in 1938 and died in 1989. your paternal grand father was born in Pondichery, Therefore your father conserved french nationality without need to make option under the Franco -Indias treaty of cession, 1956.
As your father was french at the time of your birth you are eligible to ask for CNF by paternal filiation, Yours sincerely

Sir.
You were born in 1958 at Pondicherry, to your parents born also in Pondicherry, At the time of dejure transfer of Fr India into Indian Union you were a minor aged 4 years. According to the Franco Indian treaty of 1956 which came into force on 16.08.1862 if your father was a french, he had to subscribe in the French consulate general at Pondicherry the option to conserve his french nationality and if he was willing he could include the names of his minor children in his application for option, If he had opted for himself and yourself, your father and yourself will conserve the french nationality. Otherwise, both oj you will lose the french nationality and become Indians. If your father was not alive on this date and if your mother born in Pondicherry was french, she had to act like your father to conserve french nationality for her and yourself, Regarding the variation about her place of birth in her french B/C and M/C, the entries in her lst anterior doct will prevail over the second, Yours sincerely,

will prevail over the second,

The attestation entries may differ if the attestors are not the same in both the copies. What is important is that the text io both the copies should be the same. Yours sincerely,

Sir,
You were born in Pondicherry on 30.06.1965. Born in India, you can be a french national if your father or mother was french national at the time of your birth, Your fatjer was born in Pondicherry in 1940. He should have opted to conserve french nationality under the Franco Indian treaty, 1956. Otherwise he will become Indian, Please study your case and then act. This site is not for guiding and helping you how to get french nationality, It is your personal matter. You have to contact a french lawyer, Yours sincerely,
