Wife filed false dowry case will it come in background verification


11-May-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Hi Sir, I am a hindu male. I have received a job offer from a very good MNC. My wife is going to file a false dowry 498A and DV case. I was called by Mediation Center for counseling. When I applied for job I mentioned "NO" for two questions"Have you ever convicted of a criminal offense" and has anyone ever filed/loged an FIR against you" I mentioned "NO" because there was no FIR at the time of filling application. I will be joining the company next week, and I am expecting an FIR against me. Will company expel me from employment because I mentioned "NO". The company will do background check and find out FIR which would be filed before one of week of joining date. Will they consider it fraud for providing misinformation in application? I was going through Mediation counseling while applying job, but that is not a legal FIR so I mentioned NO. Does 498A provide ground to a private company to terminal the job. Please help. Thanks

This depends upon the company to react over the issue, but in my opinion each and every company have there own policy for there employee's conduct. If the company takes it as the misconduct, as your behavior is not good against the women then you will be in trouble.
In my advice go and file Petition for Quashing of FIR.
Thank you
