Dear Nitin,

1st 1 is correct... actually thr r two types of letters, formal and less formal or informal..

in formal letters u can either right name or surname.like Mr. Nitin or Mr. kalra.. (If u knw the person whom u r writing) but if u dont knw the person u should write Dear sir or madam..

in informal letters (Addressing to family or friend) u can write it by name only...


hope ths answer satisfy ur querry..
