It can't be done. Click here for more information.

I suggest you board the train and when asked by TTE show the id proof. In 50% of cases TTE's don't check the ID proof. Try to be normal. If you tell this problem to TTE then you lose this 50% chance also.

In any case you'll not lose the ticket but you'll be made to pay fine if TTE catches this mistake and retain the seat.
