What to negotiate

Ask for employer NPS. At the typical fixed pay here (₹21.75L), having 14% of basic (₹1.52L a year) paid into NPS as an employer contribution cuts income tax by about ₹37K a year under the new regime (section 80CCD(2)). That money goes to your NPS account rather than your monthly pay.
