I will be losing on a lot of bonus if I join Cognizant. Should I negotiate on my CTC adding my bonus in my base salary or ask them to compensate for the lost bonus as joining bonus

Also, I had a retention clause with my current company for a certification I did, which was costly; can I ask Cognizant to consider paying it?

Dear Colleagues,
I had HR discussion today where I asked for 60 percent hike. HR said they need to check with business if they can approve this hike. She said she will come back to me post discussions with business. My question is if they do not approve of the asked amount will the HR come back stating what is the best that they can offer? Or they would simply reject my profile. What would be the timeline for offer letter generation if approval is received?
