Worried About Background Checks? What Happens If You Give a Fake Reason for Resigning?

I resigned stating personal family issues to HR, which is true, but after 70 days' notice, I took back my resignation. After 20 days, I am thinking of resigning again due to the same family issue. However, to HR, I am giving a fake reason that I got a better opportunity in another sector, and so I'm switching careers.

Will this affect the background verification of the other IT company I join? Please answer.

Resignation in Employment Parlance

Resignation, in employment parlance, is an individual choice and decision of an employee not to continue in a job further. No employer, either current or prospective, has any say in it unless the reasons shown are in the nature of casting aspersions on the employer or the serving organization, the presence of genuine exigencies of work, or non-compliance with notice conditions on exit as per the contract of employment. Above all, once accepted and acted upon by both parties to the contract of employment, it cannot be scanned in the BGV by the prospective employer.

In most cases, the new employer does not concern themselves with the reason why you left the organization unless it was due to misconduct or if you left without notice. The fact that you stated you are leaving for a better opportunity does not matter to your employer, whether you left for a better opportunity in the same sector or a different one.

I have read somewhere that if HR doesn't approve a resignation, a relieving letter won't be provided. Can you please share any information you have on this? I work in an MNC company.
