Spelling mistake in nomination documents

Janardan (Querist) 15 August 2020 This query is : Resolved
Respected sirs and madams, myself janardan. When I was born,my parents named me Janardhan and used it everywhere for the first 10 years of my life. When I got old ie 10-12,I started using janardan as my name's spelling.. my certificates,my DL, my aadhar,my voter id etc all have my name as janardan.. my parents have a flat in a registered cooperative society and in the nomination certificate,my dad has used Janardhan as the spelling of my name. The certificate says that the property shall go to Janardhan,his son whith the share of property being 100%. Do you think this could be a problem ? Should I try to rectify it ? Is there any other way to make sure there is no problem in the future ? I'm saying this because of the bureaucratic nature of how this housing society functions,my dad had to spend months and even had to bribe the society position holders to get the nomination certificate done in the first place.
Will be awaiting your response,regards

Quick Summary

A user named Janardan is concerned about a spelling discrepancy in a nomination certificate for a flat. While his official documents use 'Janardan', his father's nomination certificate lists his name as 'Janardhan'. He seeks advice on whether this could cause future problems with the cooperative society and how to rectify it, given the society's bureaucratic nature. Responses suggest that while it might not be an immediate issue, especially if there are no other sons with the same name, it's advisable to get it rectified. Options include a name reconciliation affidavit, a 'one and same person' certificate from a revenue officer, changing the nomination if the father is alive, or a Gazette notification for a permanent solution. It's also noted that nomination typically relates to society membership rather than outright property ownership unless a conveyance deed exists.

No problem.The society must act as per nomination.If need be, a name reconciliation could be produced with notary attestation.

why do you think there will be no problem.

There will be problem which can be ratified during life time of parents.

Normally there cannot be any problem at all so long as your father has no other son with the same misspelled name.

In case of trouble there is a possibility to produce a “one and same certificate” from the revenue officer. States like Kerala issues such a certificate to declare that one person has both names and both names point to the same person.

If your father alive, get the nomination changed accordingly.

He can bequeath a will in this regard.

Consult a local Advocate & Notary. Say the problem to him. He will prepare the Affidavit which is sufficient at present. You have to apply to the Gazette Notification for rectification of your name (spelling correction in name) through the Tahsildar concerned. It is a permanent solution.

There is no problem as far as nomination is concerned. Such nomination entitles only for the membership in the Society, not the property in the flat unless there is a conveyance deed.

If the father is not alive to rectify the error in nomination, affidavit etc. may work.
