I appreciate that this article dives a bit deeper and states how you can STRATEGICALLY state your salary expectations by having sufficient data and also understanding the value you bring to an organization. When done very strategically, then yes, this method can work.

I think the only thing I don’t agree with is if you’re stuck to use your current salary as a baseline. I don’t think you should ever give away what you are currently making. I feel like that’s too much information. If you’re stuck, I would say, find a way to get unstuck. Find a way to get that data that you need in order to effectively state a fair compensation expectation.

Don’t shoot in the dark. But also don’t put all your cards on the table. These kinds of negotiations are such a delicate dance lol. It’s definitely not easy. I would suggest come prepared with as much information as possible. Knowledge is power and will give you the leverage you need to succeed.

Solid take

I don't know what the right thing to do is anymore. I know that I tend to panic when ask this question and instead of cleverly trying to dodge the question or flip it around, I just answer it...

Hello everyone, need a help from you.

Previously my HRA amount was 96000 per annum so I was submitting a rental agreement of full hra without giving pan card details of myself and first party.

Now I have recently joined a new company and here hra is 2.7LPA.

How can I claim the full hra amount? I live in a rented house where agreement is between owner and my dad. Also owner will not accept for a fake agreement too.

Any other alternative do I have to claim HRA? Your inputs are welcome here

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago.

Spoke to a lot of others who have left and seems like being pigeonholed or staffed on projects not related to the actual core work of the practice is the common reason. I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...
