Model Town is the name of a sub-division of Central North Delhi district, so most addresses in Model Town fall in the Model Town sub-division. Colonies on the edges can fall in a neighbouring sub-division. We confirm the exact office for your address before any application is filed.

Model Town moved from North district, and Shalimar Bagh and Shakur Basti from North West district, to form Central North district in January 2026. Delhi's revenue districts were reorganised from 11 to 13 by a Revenue Department notification of 25 December 2025. The new districts are Central, Central North, East, New Delhi, North, North East, North West, Old Delhi, Outer North, South, South East, South West and West; Shahdara is no longer a separate revenue district. SDM (sub-division) boundaries moved with this change, so the Marriage Officer or registering authority for your address may differ from what older websites say. Always confirm your current sub-division on the Delhi Revenue Department website before applying. A further notification of 3 September 2026 aligned registration jurisdiction with these boundaries, with a Sub-Registrar office for each of the 39 sub-divisions.
