Hello there,

There might be a slight issue with the discrepancy in the spelling of your name between the documents. In most cases, universities, including Delhi University, require that the name on your admission application matches exactly with the one on your official documents (Aadhar, marksheets, etc.).

To avoid any issues during the admission process, you should:

  1. Contact the authorities : Reach out to the admission office of Delhi University or the concerned department to inform them about the discrepancy and seek clarification.

  2. Rectify the discrepancy : If possible, you can get your 12th marksheet corrected through your respective board (if the mistake is significant enough). You may be able to provide an affidavit or a gazette notification for name corrections in some cases.

Make sure to resolve it as early as possible to prevent any complications during admission or the verification process.


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, then feel free to share your questions with us, we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.
