Hello Amit,

If the date of birth (DOB) on your Class 12 registration form is different from the one on your Class 10 marksheet, it can potentially create issues during the JOSAA counselling process. The authorities may consider the documents to be inconsistent, and this might lead to delays or even rejection of your application for admission.

Here's what you can do:

  1. Check with your school : Immediately contact your school or the board that issued your Class 12 registration form. They can guide you on how to correct the error or provide the necessary documentation for clarification.

  2. Correct the Error : If there's a mistake on the registration form, it is crucial to get it rectified before the counselling process begins. Many boards and schools allow you to apply for corrections within a specific window.

  3. Provide Supporting Documents : In case the discrepancy isn't fixed in time, you may need to provide other supporting documents (like a birth certificate) to prove your actual date of birth.

    JOSAA Counselling

  • Inconsistencies in documents can lead to the cancellation of your candidature or even rejection during document verification at the time of JOSAA counselling.

  • Ensure all documents are consistent across Class 10, Class 12, and other submitted documents.

To be 100% sure , I highly recommend that you act quickly and get in touch with your school or board for guidance. They can provide the official solution to the discrepancy before JOSAA counselling starts.


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

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

Yes, a mismatch in date of birth between Class 10 marksheet and Class 12 registration can create problems during JoSAA counselling. Class 10 marksheet is considered the primary proof. You must get it corrected or provide an affidavit if allowed.
