No need to transfer the visa, just dont forget to carry the old passport with your new. its mentioned on the
www.mha.nic.in OCI help guide.
But bear in mind that if you have OCI visa on one nationality passport and then you naturalize as another nationality, you cannot use the same OCI.
e.g. if you have OCI on a British passport and then naturalize as an American, you cannot use your current American passport in conjunction with a OCI visa in an old expired British passport. Both current and expired passport with Visa has to be the same nationality.
