How to Verify the Authenticity of a Counteroffer

Simply, I can say how the counteroffer is verified to determine whether the offer is genuine or not. If not, can we show the counteroffer by adding some amount to CTC? Will that work?

Scenario Explanation

I received an offer from Company A for x CTC and an offer from Company B for y CTC. I negotiated with Company A to revise their offer to match the offer from Company B, which was (y + 10%) by editing Company B's offer. (All calculations are correct).

So now, Company A has offered the same as Company B (y + 10%). After accepting the offer from Company A, will they verify if Company B's offer of y+10% was genuinely released to me?

In short, it seems that the poster had inflated the CTC offered by Company B on his own. It also seems that the poster himself has realized now that what he had done is not ethical, and that guilty feeling alerts him to whether his act would come to light if a BGV is done by Company A.

Certainly, it is possible if the scope of the BGV includes not only the verification of previous employment but also the previous offers the candidate mentioned. Particularly, since the poster has mentioned that he himself edited the offer of the sum of "y" by Company B as 'y+' in order to get a higher package from Company A. It is nothing but tampering with records for the sake of personal gain, and as such, it would clearly prove that he is not a reliable person.

If the BGV process is restricted to previous employment only, of course, it may not come to light.

However, the poster should bear in mind that honesty is the best policy for every job aspirant. He could have negotiated for a higher package since the same was also offered by another company, which he didn't accept.

I understand your question now. It is unfortunately a sad reflection on the current level of honesty as well as corporate culture.

I am sure many people have done this. The BGV would be difficult because no company will share an offer made to an employee who has not joined. However, if you are unlucky and they do call to check (you never know when an HR from one company may be a friend of HR in another company), they may actually share the information unofficially.

Frankly, your behavior disgusts me.
