+  - **Pay the fee** as per state norms: **Rs. 20 IPO (state-specific), Rs. 2/page; one of 2 states with non-Rs.10 fee**.
+  - **File**: online via [[https://rtionline.gujarat.gov.in/]] OR by Speed Post to the office, with acknowledgment.
+  - **Track**: 30-day clock starts from the date of receipt by the public authority.
+===== If you don't get a reply =====
+  - **Day 31**: file First Appeal under §19(1) to the First Appellate Authority (FAA) — typically the office one rung above the PIO.
+  - **Day 75-76**: file Second Appeal to the **Gujarat State Information Commission**.
