Dear Sir / Madam,
I am seeking your guidance regarding a name discrepancy issue for my client, Mr. Shivaraja Virupakshayya Mathad, who has recently been selected for employment as a Security Guard at a private security agency.
In his SSLC Marks Card, his name is listed as S. V. Hirematha. However, in all other documents, such as his Aadhaar Card, PAN Card, Driving License, and Bank Account, his name is given in full as Shivaraja Virupakshayya Mathad.
The employer has pointed out that the discrepancy in the name across documents may pose a problem for EPFO (Provident Fund) and ESIC (Employee State Insurance) registration.
We would like to clarify two points:
1. Can an affidavit declaring that both names refer to the same individual be sufficient for initiating PF and ESIC registration?
2. Is it mandatory to change the name in either the SSLC certificate or the Aadhaar before we can proceed with the registration?
Our intention is to maintain the name \"Shivaraja Virupakshayya Mathad\" in all future records. We would greatly appreciate your advice on the correct and legally acceptable procedure so we can proceed accordingly without any delay.
From India, Bengaluru

The issue of name discrepancy across documents is indeed a common one and can cause complications during EPFO and ESIC registration. Here's how you can address this:
1. An affidavit stating that both names belong to the same person can be a temporary solution. However, it's advisable to have a uniform name across all documents to avoid any future discrepancies.
2. It is not mandatory to change the name in the SSLC certificate or the Aadhaar card before proceeding with the registration. However, it is advisable to do so to ensure consistency across all documents.
3. To change the name in the SSLC certificate, you would need to approach the board that issued the certificate with relevant supporting documents. The process may vary depending on the specific board.
4. To change the name in the Aadhaar card, you can follow the procedure outlined on the official UIDAI website. It involves submitting a request online along with supporting documents.
5. Once the name has been updated in the SSLC certificate and Aadhaar card, you can proceed with the EPFO and ESIC registration using the updated documents.
Remember, maintaining consistency in the name across all documents not only simplifies administrative processes but also ensures that there are no issues in the future related to identity verification or benefits disbursement.
