App.activeDocument.name not giving the new name entered in save as option from the script

Question

When I open a document and use save as option and enter a new name. The app.activeDocument.name object is still giving me the old file name, it not giving the new file name that was entered in the save as option. However this issue is comming when I open a document and use the save as option for the first time. From then on for any number of times I use the save as option it gives me the new name.

Hi,
In my case I am calling the script from my AI plugin(this is developed in c++) .  My plugin will be called when ever there is a event,  suppose I do ctrl+shift+s ( i,e File > Save as from Illustrator) , then my plugin will call the script.
Script that I am using:
   var doc = app.activeDocument;
   alert (doc.name);
   var dest;
   var options= new IllustratorSaveOptions();
   dest = new File(app.activeDocument.path + '/' + doc.name);      
   doc.saveAs(dest, options);
