Newly married last name change for wife?

This heavily depends on if her name is officially changed or not. While I am not aware of the customs in India, in many countries both parties keep their original names officially, while they use their married name. In others, the name does get changed.

Bottom line is: You will want to use her official name on the visa application, as it appears on the passport she will be using.

Regarding the fields: her mother's name is just that, her mother's name. It can be the same as her last name. Spouse's name should be your name.

If you have valid marriage certificate, the name can be different for you and the spouse. They have a right to have their own name as they would like to have.
