Valid reason for extension of joining - They were looking for immediate joiners

kanika-pal
Due to this Covid 19 situation, management has decided & informed on 23rd October to reduce the team and asked to leave till 30th October due to financial stress in the company otherwise the institute will terminate me. With this stress, I have been interviewed in a very good brand on 26th Oct and selected as well. They were looking for immediate joiners, and I being honest informed them the same reason that my current company has informed me this and that. They took my interview and after quite a negotiation they agreed to offer me the same salary as they don't have a budget for the profile.

And when I negotiated for my salary they have given me the date of joining on 2nd November strictly. Now the thing is when I fought for my right from my current company regarding 1 month notice period, they have accepted the same. I fought for this period as the location is very far and I want Diwali vacation as well. I also knew that they are hiring many and the process will go on. But it's all about asking them about an extension for joining. What reasons should I say for an extension? One reason can be I will be completing my 1 year on 26.11.2020 this is a fact as well, thus demanding notice period was necessary so that I can receive 1 year of experience letter. Or some other reason..!
