Hey @vishwa1979 ,

 

Here is an example for you.

As with any statistical method, fuzzy matching is not a 100% accurate process and it could require some manual work. 

I suggest you take a look at the following materials to learn more about how to improve the accuracy or to select the best options to work with your data.
