Srinagar: The Haj committee of India (HCoI) has extended the last date for deposit of the advance Haj amount for Hajj 2025 from 21 October to 31 October 31, 2024, by 23:59 hours, asking selected pilgrims to submit their documents by 5 Nov 2024.

In a circular issued, the Hajj Committee of India stated that requests from State Haj Committees, various organizations, and individuals were received, seeking an extension in the last date for submitting the advance Hajj amount of Rs 1,30,300.

“Now, we have received numerous requests from State Haj Committees, various organizations, and individuals seeking an extension of the last date for depositing this advance Haj amount. In response, the deadline for depositing the advance Haj amount has been extended to 23:59 hours on 31.10.2024,” reads the circular.

Notably, according to an earlier circular the last date for submitting the advance Hajj amount was set as 21.10.2024.

“It is essential that Haj pilgrims adhere to the specified deadline for both the advance Haj amount deposit and the submission of documents to the concerned State Haj Committee. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of their Haj seats,” states the circular.

Pertinent to mention here that as per the officials at Jammu and Kashmir state Hajj committee of total provisionally selected pilgrims for Hajj 2025, there was still at least a 30 percent pendency for those who are yet to submit the advance amount.

Meanwhile, outlining the procedure, circular states that payments can be made through online methods or bank branches, and documentation must include the Haj Application Form, medical certificates, passport copy with declaration and undertaking. (KNO)
