Hello Karthik,
Firstly, does your FIRST Company still exist?
Next, don't you have the Appointment Letter of the First Company? Or some document that proves you worked there?
While Form 16 is one of the Docs to prove employment, it's NOT THE ONLY ONE--so ask CTS the other Docs they will consider as alternatives.
All the Best.

Hi Karthik ,
I can understand the condition that you are going through.
You have already mentioned that you have provided joining letter,relieving letter and experience letter of the first company.Have they accepted these letter's of the first company? If these (joining letter,relieving letter and experience letter) have been accepted then maybe they want to cross-check that you actually received the salary you mentioned from your first company.
Assuming that these three letter's have been accepted,have you provided the increment letter or salary hike letter? If you have not provided and as from your replies i can guess that your first company is helpful,you can request your first company to provide a salary hike letter and a letter where the CTC that you received at the time of leaving the company with your designation is mentioned.
Warm Regards

Dear Karthik,
Have you asked them or judged what is the reason they are insisting for request note of Form 16 ?
As mentioned by BlueHat they might want to verify your salary. However, your salary hike letters should have served the purpose.
Suggest you positively discuss with your new company inspite of submitting all the relevant documents what is that they are looking for in particular ? Tell them you have already resigned and is prepared to join them. Make your stand clear. As a last alternative, you can provide the number of your old employer and ask them to get information from them.

Karthik,
Form 16 is just to check on the permanent status of an employee with a company. As people suggested over here check for the alternate solution with CTS or else if you would have a Salary Slip with PF deduction in it then check with them if you could produce that on behalf of Form 16. The reason behind this is "In general people will ask for Salary Slip with PF deduction in it or Form 16". I hope this would clarify you. If you need any additional inputs please feel free to get in touch with us.

How did you get to know about the Job oppourtunity in your first Company. they Could have Email, call you.
Hope they could have send you mails about the oppourtunity , and address where you have to taken up the interview (I.e Your 1st company).
Show them that, Also tell Form 16 is only applicable for the employee who is making above 150000 per month 2008 to 2011 - now it has been changed.
Whats you status now ?
