Hello,

My passport(ID Proof) has my name as follows:
Given Name- Avani
Surname- Bidwalkar
Name of Father/Legal Guardian-Pranay

My GMAT candidate name is : Avani Pranay Bidwalkar

Will I be objected for taking the exam due to name discrepancy?

I don't see why you would have an issue - people often use the last name of a parent as a middle name. But if you're concerned, give your testing center a call just to be safe.
