What are the odds of being upgraded from A4 (4.25 LPA) to A5 (7.5 LPA), even before joining? Opinions and thoughts are highly appreciated.

Basically, I was selected at Capgemini through campus placements. In November 2025, I received my LOI on Superset. In that, it was mentioned that I have been selected for the A4 role, at 4.25 LPA.

Since my college has a MoU with the company, our training started in December 2025, at my college premises only. They were training us for Java Full Stack (Java Spring Boot + React JS).

During the training, it was proposed to us, as a plan, that those who will complete the training and the later evaluations (M1 + L1 + Sprint Evaluation), with good performance throughout, will be subjected to package upgradation before joining the company as a full-time employee.

The training lasted for 5.5 months (Mid December 2025 to End of May 2026). And throughout the training I performed well and was among the set of fast learner students. But, even after completing every test and evaluations in first attempt and with positive feedback, it was never disclosed to me that whether I will be subjected to any sort of upgradation (from A4 4.25 LPA to either 5.75 LPA or 7.5 LPA) or not.

Now, on 2nd July 2026, all of my batchmates, including myself, received our joining date of 27th July 2026. It was mentioned in the mail that we have to submit our documents for initial background verification, before July 5 EOD.

I am also having an offer from TCS @ Digital (7LPA), and comparing that to A4 (4.25 LPA), I was sure that I will not join Capgemini. Today, I received a call from the same person who sent us the mail regarding document submission, and she asked me why I haven't uploaded my docs till now. I told her that I am unsure about it because there has been no communication done with regards to package upgradation, upwards of A4, at all. So, she told me that according to her database, I am supposed to be joining at A5 and at 7.5 LPA only. I asked that why it has not been mentioned in any of the mail that has been sent to me, so she said that it is a confidential piece of information and it will be only disclosed once all the pre-joining formalities have been completed.

Now I am so confused about shall I trust a commitment made over a phone call and no actual written proof for the same or just leave the offer as it is and wait for my joining from TCS.

Although I did not mention to her about my other offers and have also uploaded the initial set of documents (mainly undertakings), but I am still very confused.

Kindly share your views and opinions.

Capgemini Fresher Pre-Offer Verification – No UAN & Final M.Tech Marksheet Pending

Hi everyone,

I recently received my Capgemini pre-offer verification email, and my joining date is 16 July 2026.

I'm joining as a fresher through campus placement and have never worked before, so I don't have a UAN.

Capgemini has asked me to upload:

  • Highest degree marksheets
  • e-Aadhaar
  • PAN
  • Passport-size photo
  • UAN card (current month with KYC = Yes)

My final M.Tech marksheet and Provisional Degree Certificate (PDC) are still pending because my university hasn't released them yet. However, Capgemini has provided an undertaking allowing me to submit the pending educational documents within 60 days of joining.

I have a few questions:

  1. As a fresher with no previous employment, do I need to create a UAN myself, or will Capgemini generate one after I join?
  2. If you joined Capgemini as a fresher without a UAN, what did you do during the pre-offer verification process?
  3. Has anyone joined with their final marksheet/PDC pending and submitted them later under the 60-day undertaking? Did you face any issues?

I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who has recently gone through Capgemini's onboarding process. Thanks!

Can Capgemini B1 HR ignore my old ₹2.5 LPA salary if I have recent freelance experience?

Hi everyone,

I'm interviewing for the Capgemini B1 (Associate Consultant) role and need some advice on salary negotiation.

I have 2 years of experience. My last full-time corporate salary was ₹2.5 LPA, but for the past 5 months I've been working as a freelance consultant on an Environmental Pollution Monitoring System. The project pays a lump sum at the end, so I don't have monthly payslips.

My questions:

- Will HR base my offer only on my old ₹2.5 LPA salary, or can they consider my freelance AI experience/project payout?

- Is it realistic to negotiate for ₹6–8 LPA?

- If I receive another offer before Capgemini releases theirs, can I use it during salary negotiations?

Would appreciate any insights from people who've gone through Capgemini's hiring process. Thanks!

Will they fire people who are on the bench for a long time?

Hi everyone,

I joined Capgemini in October 2025. After the initial training, I was put on the bench in February 2026, and I've been there ever since.

The thing that's worrying me is that I haven't received any shadow tagging opportunities, project interviews, or client calls. It's been completely silent.

I'm trying to upskill while on the bench, but I'm anxious about my future. I've heard different things from different people—some say companies keep employees on the bench for a long time, while others say they may let people go if they remain unallocated.

Has anyone been in a similar situation?

  • How long were you on the bench before getting a project?
  • Is it common to stay on the bench for close to a year?
  • Do companies usually terminate employees after being on the bench for that long, or does it depend on the company's business needs?

I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences.

Thanks in advance!

Confusion about laptop allotment and SEZ

So I joined capgemini 4 days ago(Lateral experienced). I got an email regarding collection of ID card and welcome kit.

But on the other hand, I got an email saying that SEZ ID is needed due to new governance rules.

So I had applied for that, after I get that SEZ ID, then only laptop would be processed.

What I am confused about is, whether or not I should go to the office before the laptop allotment is processed or not? Just to fetch welcome kit and ID card?

As it's 300KM away from home.

Did anyone else face such situation?

Capgemini Software Engineer (CIS) offer email says "All the best for your interview process" – what interview are they referring to?

I recently got selected through my college placements for a Software Engineer role at Capgemini. I already cleared the campus placement rounds (aptitude, coding, technical interview, etc.), so I'm wondering:

  • Is there another interview after accepting the offer?
  • Is this a project allocation or BU allocation interview?
  • What kind of questions do they ask?
  • Is it technical, HR, or both?
  • Do they ask about cloud, networking, Linux, or programming?

If anyone joined Capgemini recently or went through the same process, I'd really appreciate if you could share your experience.

Thanks in advance!

Is there really an 18-month no-resignation policy at Capgemini for experienced lateral hires on client projects?

Hi everyone,

I'm an experienced lateral hire at Capgemini India, currently allocated to a client project.

I've heard from a few people that once you're on a project, you cannot resign before completing 18 months. However, I went through my offer letter thoroughly and found:

My notice period is 3 months.

There is no clause mentioning an 18-month lock-in.

I have not signed any separate training bond, retention agreement, or client-specific agreement.

I'm trying to understand whether this is:

  1. An official Capgemini HR policy,

  2. A client-specific requirement,

  3. A delivery manager's expectation, or

  4. Just a rumor.

Has anyone here (especially experienced lateral hires in Capgemini India) resigned before completing 18 months while being on a client project?

- Did HR accept your resignation without any issues?

- Were you ever told you couldn't resign because of the project?

I'm not looking for speculation—I'd really appreciate responses from people who have firsthand experience or know the actual policy.

Thanks in advance!

Please help me understand the rating and promotion system here in Capgemini

I genuinely want to understand the rating and promotion criteria here in Capgemini, specially for lower grades.

I keep getting different versions from the seniors and just can't understand at all on what grounds they're botching my rating, despite being a top performer.

Please help me get some idea over it. It's really frustrating n disappointing at the same time. 🙁😖

If there is something u can't put here in public, please feel free to DM me. Genuine request.

Doubt After the Onboarding Process

Hi everyone,

I have received my onboarding date at Capgemini. Also, I have finished my training in college.

What usually happens next?

Will freshers be assigned directly to a project, placed on the bench, or undergo any additional training?

Is it possible for the work location to change after onboarding or joining based on business requirements?

I'd appreciate it if recent joiners could share their experience. Thanks!
