Hi friends,
I work for one of India's top IT companies, and my current CTC is 4.7 lakhs per annum. I have recently received an offer from another IT company. To enhance my offer, I created a fake payslip showing a salary of 7.4 lakhs per annum, and my new CTC will be 9 lakhs per annum. I have a question - will there be any issues with this? Will my new employer verify the payslip against my bank account transactions?
Assuming that my fake payslip was well-prepared with no discrepancies in the figures.
Thanks,
Rajan

Dear Rajan,
Whether the fake payslip was prepared well or the new employer does not verify with the bank or the ex-employer, this is still cheating! Please do not even consider this route as the consequences will haunt you for a long time!

I agree Jane this is cheating, do you suggest me that I can get same CTC (9 lak/anm) by negotiating with HR.

Ask the question: Can you sleep with the thought of being found out and not only losing your job but also being branded a liar and blacklisted?
I remember an old adage that my father used to quote: "He who lies and lies to hide it makes it two." And then one has to keep on doing it and develop a chain of lies.
Have a nice day.

Dear Rajan,
Negotiation is definitely a good option to move forward. However, the new employer may have constraints as they need to balance internal and external equities. So do your homework first; is your new job similar or bigger in accountability as compared to your old job; be prepared to accept a lower package (how low are you willing to go, but of course not lower than your current package but your planned CTC of 9 lak/anm) but with confirmation adjustments when your performance meets expectations.

This is totally not good to fake your pay slip. Most HR personnel verify with previous employers if they doubt or find any misinformation. It is better to negotiate with your talent and their requirements. If they feel you are needed, they would definitely hire you. But don't fake.

Hi Rajan,
As I am not very experienced to give you any advice, but being in HR makes me feel like this practice is very common these days. Don't worry; they will just check with your ex-HR. If you have good connections with them, take them into your confidence. And don't worry at all; nobody will say anything to you. Be confident. May God help you prove yourself.

Check out your new company to see if they are very much into reference checking or not. If they are very easy-going like most IT companies, then your fake references will likely not pose a problem. However, if they conduct reference checks rigorously, be prepared as they may either dismiss your appointment or decrease your salary.
Wishing you the best of luck, but next time, do not follow the wrong direction as it will always lead you into trouble.

Hi Dear,
This is a common practice in financial services companies, including pharma industries. However, smart HR managers typically confirm information from references and HR. I will share an experience of my ex-colleague. When he went for an interview at an organization, the HR representative said, "Please provide me with your last salary slip, but remember it shouldn't be fake."
This is a simple technique that HR often uses to instill the fear of potential termination. In your situation, the company can legally terminate your employment if they discover that your salary slip is falsified. I am relatively new in this field to offer guidance, so I would appreciate advice from seniors.
