Hello sir, I am practising as an advocate in Bangalore and I want to become Trade marks agent. According to the procedure one has to obtain a character certificate signed by the District Magistrate. My question is can a sitting Metropolitan Magistrate attest a character certificate.
Thanks and regards.

The District Magistrate is the chief revenue functionary of the District, the District Collector or the Deputy Commissioner, as the case may be.

Metropolitan Magistrate is not a district Magistrate.

Well clarified by experts above, the District Magistrate is generally the District collector of the district.
