How to decline an offer that's already accepted?
I've recently received an offer from company A and accepted it then, I've shared all the necessary details, like my govt ID, PAN, PF, UAN and my education related certificates.
I'm in my notice period now and I will be joining company A in 2 weeks.
Still I haven't stopped giving interviews and now it looks like, I'll pass the interview for another company, B.
In a case where I receive the offer from B, will there be any problem if I declined A's offer?
One issue I've heard is that, as I shared the details with A, it'll create dual employment.

Check if there are any clauses related to withdrawing acceptance or penalties. This can give you a better idea of what to expect.

There is no problem if you decide to decline an offer from Company A. As per my understanding, if you decline to join a company after you received an offer you can't be able to give an interview either 6 Months or more than that. This may change per their Company A policies, apart from this there won't be any problem as I think.
This also won't create dual employment. You don't have to worry.
You simply say valid reasons politely for not being able to join Company A.
Company A may ask many questions or the reasons not being able to join . You have to prepare all those things as per your questions you can answer like,
1. I decided to pursue an offer from Company B.
2. I got a better offer from Company B, If Company A really needs you for that position, they may provide the same compensation of Company B. In that case you have to decide which one you want to take.
Thanks

unless you join company A nothing will happen if you join B. Just tell them that due to personal reason you wont be joining. Once you join A then only theres a problem

Nothing will be happened to you just join another company and give them the reason that you no longer serve this company anymore, return there assets they won't do anything just inform the company B to not involve company A in BGC part nothing will be happen, its one choice to choose to any company of its own even the same is written in Fundamental rights of India. No one can do anything if they force you then give the threat to file a complaints against them.

I dont think it will be a problem for you.
Once get the offer letter from company B, & let company A know for personal reasons you can not join.

If you want just explain your reasons for declining the offer honestly, without providing excessive details. Avoid making negative comments about the company or the job. Don't worry!

The only negative consequence might be that some companies could ban you from joining them in the future. if you provide a valid reason for not joining, this can be avoided in certain cases
what the current situation ? did you join the other company
?

Hey, I’ve been in a similar situation before. It’s totally understandable to keep your options open even after accepting an offer, but if you decide to go with company B, you’ll need to decline A’s offer as soon as possible. Just be upfront and respectful with them – companies understand that things change.

It can land you in trouble. I think if you have accepted the offer of Company A you should join it. They will blacklist you if you will decline their offer and it can affect you in long run. I hope it helps 👍
