Hi Kshitiz,

Here is what you can do in this scenario:

1. Immediate Action (NEET Registration)

Match the 10th Certificate: Fill out the application exactly as it appears on your Class 10th marksheet, even if it's incorrect.

2. Handle Aadhaar Issues: If your Aadhaar name differs, use an alternative ID (PAN/Passport) or provide a self-attested affidavit during registration.

2. Legal Correction (The Paperwork)

Gazette Notification: Since you've changed your name before, you must publish a notice in the Official Gazette.

Supporting Proofs: Prepare a Name Change Affidavit through a notary and publish a notice in two newspapers (one English, one local).

3. Board & Counseling Prep

CBSE Update: Contact your school to initiate an official correction via the e-Harkara portal using your Gazette copy and affidavit.

Verification: Keep the Gazette notification and Affidavit ready to present to officials during the counseling/admission stage to explain any remaining discrepancies.
