There is no time limit but every state Government concerned may issue instructions on maintaining the records. Generally it is advisable to keep the records at least 10 years.

According to the Notaries Act, 1952 in India, a notary is required to preserve their records for a period of five years as the certificate of practice issued to a notary is valid for five years and can be renewed for subsequent five-year terms.
