We submitted everything as it is without changes becuz we were afraid that getting the new passport with husband's name added would delay the process - since we all know how looongg the passport offices take to work here.
Also one of my friends - who's husband was the sponser - they had made the choice of adding husband name to her passport and changing her last name to her husband's - well the passport office here took 3 months to issue her the new changed / updated passport and thts how her paper work got delayed.
So hope these two scenarios help you make a better decision. These are my own personal experiences from the Kolkata Passport Office - I dont know where in India you are though.
Don't worry about it. It has no impact
