What do I do if I don't know my previous visa number for the Indian e-Tourist visa application?

The web site allowed me to type “Unknown” into the field for the previous visa application. We were granted our visas within about 24 hours of submitting the application.

In our particular case, we had the previous visa number for three of our five family members. I was also able to fill in the issue date for all of the passports, since I knew that they had all been granted on the same day. I don't know whether these things were a factor in the decision to grant our visas.

I had to fill out five separate applications, and (judging from the timestamps of the emails) the visas were granted over a period of an hour and a half. That suggests to me that the visas were processed separately. That in turn suggests that writing “Unknown” isn't a very big deal.
