If your mother’s name appears differently on your 10th and 12th marksheets, this alone should not lead to an automatic rejection of your NEET application, but it is something that should be addressed proactively. Minor discrepancies, like spelling differences, can usually be clarified by providing supporting documents. However, significant name differences may require formal documentation.


To avoid issues, you can include an affidavit stating that both names refer to the same person. This document, prepared through a notary, confirms the discrepancy and provides evidence of the correct name. You might also consider submitting copies of other official documents where your mother’s name is consistent, such as her Aadhaar card or passport, to further support your case.


It’s a good idea to contact the National Testing Agency (NTA), the authority for NEET, for specific guidance on handling name discrepancies. They may ask for additional documents or affidavits and provide instructions to ensure your application is not delayed or rejected. By addressing the issue early and providing clear documentation, you can help ensure your application proceeds smoothly.

Hello Abhay

No, your Neet form will not be rejected if your mother's name is different in two marksheets.

But you will have to present your mother's documents as a proof of names , I mean one name of your mother might  be before marriage so you will have to show her birth certificate or any other document showing her previous name .

You must also have domicile certificate of your mother at the time of counseling or whenever required.

Most likely, you will not have your application rejected by NEET due to a difference in the mother's name in your 10th and 12th mark sheet.


However, this disparity needs to be rectified so that you do not face any trouble at verification time.


What you must do is the following:


Understand the Discrepancy


Get in touch with your school or board to procure a clarification or rectification as regards the name of your mother in the 12th mark sheet.

Get corrected mark sheet with his/her name as it is recorded.

File Affidavit

If one could not get marked copy of the marks card, one can file affidavit for explanation of discrepancy of the mistake. Affidavit be signed by the notary public or gazette officer. Additional Documentation:

Submission of additional documentary evidence in the form of marriage certificate and other evidentiary material to substantiate the case.

This would make the name difference not cause much concern about your NEET application.


Remember, honesty is the best policy while applying.

Hello,

The situation might make some problem arise while giving the marksheets before the admission committee, if you keep different names of your mother on your 10th and 12th mark sheets. Sometimes, all such documentation consistencies go very important to the concern, and they might find this as trouble for you. But does not say that your form will certainly be rejected, after all. Hence, to escape all of these complications,

Affidavit or Notarized Declaration: There could be an affidavit or a notarized declaration that these two names refer to the same person. This would enable a legal confirmation of identity.

Additional Supporting Documents: Collect all supporting documents like a passport and Aadhar card, which bear your mother's name as at least one of these two variations.

Contact the NEET Authorities: If possible, contact the authorities of NEET examinations or even check out the official guidelines so that discrepancies, if any, can be sorted out well in advance.

This helps avoid problems in the process of verification.
