KPMG I cleared all the rounds of my interview with KPMG and was asked to provide necessary documents and fill a CAF form a week back and had a HR discussion too. I have requested for about 3Lakhs additional fixed pay since my current CTC has increased and HR said she will get back on this. It's been a week and haven't heard back on the offer letter. How long do you think I should wait. Please wait.

Yeah just say "I'll be in town in these dates should that happen to align with your schedule."
I've done this and said I'll be in town. Would love to connect. Wouldn't say vacation.
Thanks! It's for real, heading out there in about a month just for vacation and saw some job postings there so I'll mention it
Desperation isn't the right word. But it seems a bit pushy, for lack of better explanation at the moment. Especially for an initial contact. If it were someone you'd started to establish a connection with prior, than it's not quite as wierd to say you'll be visiting and would like to come in for an "informational interview" or something like that. But it's still a bit forward and may turn people off. Use your best judgement and try to imagine you were the one on the receiving end of whatever you're sending out.
If it's for real then sure. If not then say "available to attend in person meeting" or something, rather than lying and trying to guess their schedule.
