Do i need to show both my US/UK passports to the Indian Consulate when applying for a visa from UK to India?

Question

Reason being that my American passport is back in the States with my family at the moment, but I do have my British passport and that will be the passport I will be travelling on. Will that be OK?

Also, my American passport is expired. Does that make any difference at all to the application?

Answer 1

An expired passport is useless for travelling. But you only need ONE passport on which to travel - so forget about the US passport for now. Just take your UK passport to the Consulate.  

Answer 2

Why complicate matters just apply as a British subject as you are using your British passport. Don't even mention your dual nationality.

Answer 3

Just your UK one is sufficient.
