What People in Ahmedabad Usually Need
Joining a new employer
Offices along SG Highway and auto plants around Sanand sometimes ask for a fitness certificate before joining. Check whether their form needs tests.
Back after illness or surgery
Some employers want a recovery certificate before you return. The doctor will ask how you're doing now.
Caring for a family member
People come to Ahmedabad's large hospitals from across Gujarat. If you took leave to stay with a patient, a caretaker certificate fits.
Working from home for a while
If you can work but shouldn't commute, a doctor may support a temporary request. Your employer decides.

State Government Staff
Gujarat government employees are sometimes referred to an official medical board, including the boards in Ahmedabad, for certain fitness and medical certificates. If that applies to you, an online certificate won't replace it.

Heat Alert Days
Ahmedabad was the first city in South Asia to adopt a formal heat action plan, after the deadly heatwave of 2010. On red alert days, outdoor workers, older people and children are most at risk. Heat exhaustion and dehydration are common. Confusion, fainting or hot dry skin mean heat stroke and need a hospital. Call 108.
Industrial Estates at Vatva, Naroda and Odhav
Chemical, pharma and engineering units in the GIDC estates employ a lot of people on shifts. Fumes, burns and machine injuries need an in-person check. For a fever or a stomach infection, you can request a certificate online.
Students at IIM, CEPT, NID and Nirma
Ahmedabad's institutes all have their own rules about missed classes and exams. Some accept a certificate from any registered doctor, while others ask for hospital records. Check with your programme office before you apply.
Families at the Civil Hospital
The Civil Hospital at Asarwa is one of the biggest government hospitals in the country, and patients come from across Gujarat. If you're on leave to look after a relative there, ask your employer about a caretaker certificate.
What to Keep Ready
- What the certificate is for
- The dates you need
- Your symptoms
- Any reports or prescriptions
- Your employer's or college's format
A Request From Maninagar
A teacher in Maninagar develops a stomach infection and fever after a family wedding. The school needs a certificate for a three-day absence. They apply, list the symptoms and mention the wedding food.
The doctor asks about blood in the stool, dehydration and fever. With no warning signs, they issue a certificate for the days their symptoms support and suggest ORS and rest. The teacher sends the PDF to the principal.
Recovering in the Heat
- Drink chaas, nimbu pani or ORS through the day
- Rest in a cool room
- Eat light food like khichdi or curd rice
- Avoid street food until you're fully better
- See a doctor if you can't keep fluids down
