My UAN Card bears the name Swathi Srinivasan, identical to the name on my Aadhaar card as provided by my employer for KYC purposes. Nonetheless, I made an error when entering my details for Aadhaar KYC on the EPFO portal, where I inadvertently input my name as Swathi S. Despite this discrepancy, all my KYC details were approved.
Now, when I attempt to set up my PF nominations, I encounter a name mismatch error during the e-sign process. I would be grateful for suggestions on how to rectify this name issue.
