Actually my job requires lot of touring. Though my company office is in Gurgaon butI dont even stay in Gurgaon for more than 2-3 days a week. On weekends I am at chandigarh only 9 times out of 10. However, unfortunately the day police man came to see me, I was on tour to Mumbai. Hence, coudnt meet him. He called me on my phonr and inquired me about my job. I did not lie and said that I am working in Gurgaon based company, but I dont stay at Gurgaon much since I am on tour most of the times. He said OK. After 10 days My status at Passport oseva kendra website showed me that My police verification is not clear and I need to contact Regiona passport office (RPO) at Chandigarh. This RPO is different from PSK. I went there, met Regional passport officer after 2 days of wait. He slapped Rs. 5000/- fine on me due to misrepresentation and cancelled my application from Chd PSK.
Then I had to make an address proof in Gurgaon which was luckily accepted at Gurgaon PSK. Police verification was again done upon me, two of my neighbours signed my police verification report as "someone knowing me" since last one year or so. Then after 3 days I got my PCC.
However, anyone here dont go by my way. NO NEED TO BE TRUTHFUL, ESPECIALLY If You do not have address proof of your current address by virtue of living in a PG or shared accommodation, apply from the place from where you can show your valid address proof, even if YOUR CURRENT ADDRESS IS SOMEWHERE ELSE. The only thing you need to take care about is not to leak your current address in front of the verifying police man AND BE PRESENT AT THAT ADDRESS DURING POLICE VERIFICATION. The police man will call you before visiting you. Yes you can lie. This is India, police station in India do not have data base connectivity with another police station in some other city of India. Take my words, Indian police JUST CANT LOCATE YOUR CURRENT ADDRESS IF YOU DONT TELL THEM YOURSELF. Tell them that you live at this address for which you have address proofs, get verification form signed by couple of neighbours, give some "charity" to police man and you are through.
This is all about getting PCC from Indian PSK. And I seriously doubt if they actually check your criminal record at all.
