F-1 VISA WITH DIFFERENT SEVIS ACCOUNTS

I am currently on OPT & my F-1 visa expired last year. I am planning to go to India for my F-1 renewal. In 2020, during pandemic I failed to renew my I-20 on time. I could not get in touch with my DSO over the winter break in 2020. After 3 days since my I-20 expiration, I was finally able to renew my I-20 by going to the nearest port of entry as per my DSO suggestion. Due to this reason I have a new SEVIS number while on my expired visa the SEVIS number is different. Will this be an issue during my F-1 visa extension? Thank you.
