Dear Client,
As for the difference between “Vasudeo” and “Vasudev,” phonetic differences are generally in the ambit of the legal maxim of idem sonans. Nonetheless, to avoid administrative issues, your father will have to make an affidavit of “One and the Same Person”, duly sworn before a Notary Public or Magistrate, that both forms refer to him. If he makes the affidavit public in two local newspapers, he can use it to get the name standardised in different documents, including PAN and Aadhaar. I hope this answer helps. If you have any further query kindly do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you
