Dear aspirant,
Don’t worry — your OBC certificate won’t be rejected just because of small name differences like “Kishor Kumar Roy” vs “Kishor Roy” or “Nitu Devi” vs “Neetu Devi.” These are common issues and usually not a problem during JoSAA counselling if handled properly.
What you should do is make a simple notarized affidavit clearly stating that the names refer to the same person — for example, “Kishor Kumar Roy” and “Kishor Roy” are one and the same. Do the same for your mother's name. This affidavit helps clarify the mismatch during document verification.
When you go for JoSAA counselling or admission at the allotted college, carry this affidavit along with your OBC certificate and all your academic documents. In most cases, they will accept it without any issue.
If you want to be extra sure, you can contact the JoSAA helpdesk or the college's admission office in advance and ask them if anything else is needed.
So overall, you don’t need to panic — just be prepared with the affidavit and relevant ID proof to avoid any delays or confusion during verification.
