Hello,

I guess it depends on the type of application form you're filling. I am not sure which form you are talking about but generally, ev ery institute matches the data that you have mentioned in the application form with the documents that you submit in the subsequent rounds of selection. If you have entered a certain marks percentage it will be verified with your mark sheet/transcript etc.,

Therefore it is mandatory to enter valid and correct details because they will be validated in the subsequent rounds and any mismatch can just lead to rejection of your candidature. (Even if you clear your entrance exams).

Now, these norms depend on the institute that you are applying for. The best-case scenario is to inform the authorities beforehand to notify them of the error and keep a copy of the resolution that they offer, Or file an affidavit stating the error, it helps mitigate the issue. In case the error is unintentional I am sure the authorities will help!

I hope this information helps!

Thank you!
