You can apply to the Educational Department. Till High School, you can approach the State level through your Head Master/Mistress and thereafter with the certificate from the Tahsildar / Village Officer / with parential proof.
Normally, they write the religion that belongs to one's father. Later conversion is possible by registering.

Whatever label you change, your real identity won't change. Then instead of changing records on paper change your life record. Did you understand what I mean? Religion means an individual effort & conduct within oneself with pure heart to experience "Paramaatmaa" the ultimate aim of our life.

Can't you just contact the Registrar's Office in Hyderabad and tell them?

And remember:

Pay no attention to the faults of others,
things done or left undone by others.
Consider only what by oneself is done or left undone.

Please contact CBSE or what ever board you have appeared for and correct the certificate.
