Hi, I'm already holding an offer of 8.5 fixed from Org1. And, after being interviewed by Cognizant, the HR said she can only offer me 7 fixed 20K variable. Seriously? All she's saying is that it's based on my current CTC (3.79 fixed+20K variable = 3.99).
Exp: 2 YOE.
Technology: Informatica IDQ, SQL, UNIX

Please help me here. My expected was 11 LPA based on the offer I'm holding. It's really depressing that the offer I'm being given by CTS is even lower than what I'm having.

8.5 -> 11 ~30% hike.
Usually they'll match it or provide 5-10% hike on holding offer i.e. 8.5. Your expectation of 30% in oneshot is a bit high.
Ask them for something around ~9.5, then take that to another company for even higher number.
I'm not much aware of your tech stack, but check what your experience guy should be getting.

Ok brother. She hasn't called me yet. But, I'm definitely gonna say that I can't accept an offer below the current offer that I'm holding. If you can give me a 25% hike over my current package, that's fine. Otherwise, no.
