There are three solutions to this:

  1. Fill up a new form : You won’t face any issues while filling out the second form, but you will need to provide a new/alternate email ID and phone number. Additionally, you will have to pay the fees again.

  2. Correction window : In this option, you can change your full name. The correction window might open in March (MHT-CET has not announced an official date yet; this is just a prediction). Stay updated on the correction window news by regularly checking updates on Google or the official MHT-CET website ( cetcell.mahacet.org ).

  3. Unconditional undertaking : This is a form that you need to fill out and carry with you to the exam center. The form will be released when the admit cards are issued. At that time, you can download the form and submit it at your exam center.

I recommend solution 1.

Wishing you all the best! Stay confident and focus on your preparation. You've got this!

Hello aspirant,

The for of any competitive exam must be filled with due care and if you have filled you mother's name wrong, then try to correct it. It should match with your class 10th marksheet.

But in my opinion it may not create any hindrance in admission process but I suggest you to correct it if you can.

Thank you

An incorrect mother's name on the MHT CET form can lead to issues during the document verification process and while issuing admission letters, as the information must match official records. It’s crucial to correct it immediately to avoid complications later. Contact the MHT CET helpdesk or authorities and request a correction by submitting a written application, along with proof of the correct name (such as your mother’s Aadhaar card or other valid ID). If corrections are not allowed now, ensure you inform the verification officers during counseling. Resolving it early will save time and prevent admission delays.
