A:
It's natural to feel anxious about name discrepancies during document verification. The good news is that such minor differences, like "Sweta" versus "Shweta," are quite common and generally not a cause for rejection, especially when the documents clearly belong to the same person. TISS Mumbai is likely to understand that small variations in name spellings occur.
To avoid any issues, you should proactively address this by preparing an affidavit or notarized document stating that both names refer to you. This document can serve as a formal declaration to explain the discrepancy. Additionally, bring copies of all relevant identification documents, such as your Aadhar and PAN card, to support your claim.
If you have the time, you might also consider reaching out to the admissions office at TISS before your verification to explain the situation and ask if they require any specific documents to clarify the name discrepancy. This can help you feel more prepared and confident during the process.
