Name conflict Indian Passport vs Academic Documents like Degree Certificates, and other important Docs

Hi All,

I'm an Indian, and I don't have a middle name or surname. In all of my academic docs, my Father's name is put as initials, whereas in my passport- since Indian Passport wont allow initials and asks for abbreviated name, my father's name is expanded. See the below:

Academic Docs: Mukunda A B
Aadhar Card/Voter ID: Mukunda A B
PAN Card: Mukunda A B

Whereas,
Passport: Mukunda Axxxxxxxx Bxxxxxxxxx

Can anyone please confirm or share your experience on the potential risk about it?

Also please answer:
1. What should I give the name for the University Applications?
2. Will this cause unnecessary attention of the university for name conflict btw the docs?
3. Is there a chance of rejection?
4. If so, how to resolve it?

Thanks,
Mukunda

Awaiting quick response as I'm running out of deadline to apply.
