Hi, I am currently employed at a multinational company, let's call it Company C. Companies A and B are my previous employers. I have been working at Company C for the past two years. Recently, Company C has initiated another round of background verification (BGV). The first time they conducted my BGV, everything was clear. Now, however, Company A has closed down. If my BGV fails due to this, will Company C provide me with an experience certificate for the years I have worked here? I am based in Pune, India.

In most cases, your ongoing employment or experience certificate from Company C should not be affected by the closure of your previous employer, Company A. The purpose of a Background Verification (BGV) is to check the authenticity of the data provided by an employee. If Company A has been closed, it might be a challenge for them to verify the data from that particular organization.
Here's what you can do:
1. If you have any documents like payslips, offer letter, relieving letter, or experience certificate from Company A, keep them handy. These documents can serve as proof of your employment in the absence of direct verification from Company A.
2. If you were part of any professional or social groups at Company A, such as on LinkedIn or other platforms, they can also serve as a reference for your employment.
3. Connect with your ex-colleagues or managers from Company A who can vouch for your tenure at that company.
4. If possible, provide the details of the auditor who audited the financial statements of Company A. They may have some record of the employees.
Remember, honesty is the best policy in these situations. Inform your HR about the closure of Company A and provide all the possible proofs of your employment. Your current employer, Company C, should understand the situation and cooperate, given you have not misrepresented any facts.
Finally, as per the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, if you have completed 240 days of service in your current company (Company C), you are entitled to receive an experience certificate, regardless of the BGV outcome. However, this may also depend on the policies of your current employer. It is recommended to consult with your HR department or a labor law expert for more precise information based on your situation.
