1 week before I joined a new company, I received a termination letter from my old company due to some unfortunate circumstances.
Now, my concern is whether this will impact my new career. My background check has already been completed, and it has affected my PF.

As per law, a termination letter issued after the employee has been relieved is not binding on the employee. However, in private companies, the management often considers reports from background verification agencies as 'proof of evidence' when they are not satisfied with an employee. This means that as long as the relationship between the employer and the employee is amicable, there should not be any issues. But, if the relationship sours, the employer may use a negative comment from a previous employer in the background verification report as a tool to harass or terminate the employee. The employer may not consider the circumstances of the termination, whether the employee had an opportunity to defend against charges, or why the previous employer let the employee go while a disciplinary action was pending. Instead, the employer focuses solely on the 'report,' which holds no legal value on its own.
The findings of a private background verification report may not carry weight, which is why individuals often pay little attention to background verifications or feedback from private employers when seeking employment in the public sector. Ultimately, the dynamics between the employee and the employer, the employee's marketability, and the prevailing job market conditions play significant roles in shaping the employment scenario.
