EY- Offer Negotiation

Hi all, I recently cleared two technical interviews with EY for a pentesting role and was asked to fill out the CIS form by HR. Later, I received a call where they offered me 10.5 LPA CTC + 5% variable for the position of Security Analyst L3. Here’s my background: YOE: 2.5 years in cybersecurity Certifications: OSCP, CRTO, CRTE, CEH, eCPPTv2 I mentioned that the offer seemed on the lower side, especially given my certifications and expertise, but the HR said they couldn’t increase it further and even mentioned they might drop my candidacy if I pushed for more. I’d like your advice: How much should I reasonably ask for given my profile? Should I negotiate further or accept the offer? Is this offer aligned with the market standards for a pentesting role?
