I worked at Company 1 (a startup) for two years. Then, I joined an MNC, Company 2. Now, I got an offer from Company 3.
A few days after my Last Working Day in Company 2, HR from Company 3 called me and stated that my BGV had failed because I lied. Surprisingly, the BGV vendor got mail from Company 1 that I didn't resign. Instead, I was fired for poor performance. Also, the documents that I shared, the Experience certificate and the Appointment Letter, were not genuine but forged. I do not have proof of the Experience certificate, but I received the Appointment Letter from Company 1's official mail.
Exactly one month before submitting my resignation from Company 1, I received an award from the company for my performance (medal + cash prize) in Company 1. My BGV was cleared by Company 2 (Company 2 is also an MNC and is very strict with BGV). I told HR I could provide an affidavit stating that I did not forge documents and that the same documents were shared with Company 2 as well. Company 1 is lying and trying to destroy my career, or they already did. Company 3 is asking for an official mail stating my Date of joining, Date of Exit, and Nature of Exit (resigned voluntarily) from Company 1. But Company 1 is not responding. What can I do?

You should file a case against Company 1 for false allegations against you and defamation. It is a matter of your own prestige; never compromise on it. Consult a lawyer and send a notice to all persons involved. This should be a message to all employers/HR persons who blindly believe the background verification agencies and past employers. I have just now replied to another thread with a similar grievance. Please read that also in the following link.

Please do not hesitate to take action against the employer who had awarded you as the best performer. It is a fact that when you lose a good performer with whom you have completed many projects and earned money, you will feel bad. However, seeking revenge by leaving negative remarks about the same employee is very unprofessional.

Thanks @Madhu. Company 1 had not deposited my EPF amount (even when it was deducted) for 1 month and EPS amount for the entire year, despite multiple follow-ups over 6-7 months. So, I had to raise a grievance against Company 1. That is the reason why they are holding a grudge against me.
But, I had to take that step because I was being warned by Company 2 regarding PF being taken very seriously. Now, Company 1 is doing this kind of unethical work.

In my opinion, if you have salary slips or a bank statement for the period you worked in Company 1 and are willing to share it with Company 3, then it will resolve your issue.
No company will be willing to pay a salary to a poor performer. In such a case, if your salary slip from the date of joining Company 1 to the date of exit is clear, then there should not be any issue.

Possibly yes, if you can download the EPF passbook from the EPFO website using your UAN login. Here again, PF remittance should have been made by Company 1 from the date of your joining till the date of your exit.

Logically, your award for performance should be considered by the new company's HR. However, if they believe you forged the documents, then they wouldn't believe the award either. But if you have proof of your complaint against them to PF, that could convince Company 3 of your sincerity.
You can consider filing a criminal and civil case against Company 1, but it is going to be an expensive affair, and you need to have someone backing you up, such as an activist organization, NGO, or a union. Unfortunately, associating with any of these will hinder your career in the future as prospective employers do not like it.
