Legal Question in Employment Law in India

Currently I am working with one of big MNC,I joined 4 months back.

Prior to joining I submitted soft copies of all my educational certificates as it is to my current employer(Soft copies Original certificates as it is).

At the time of joining i submitted my Xerox copies of all my educational certificates.

But in past I edited my soft copy of one of mark sheet, just as time pass.

But now i am afraiding that by mistake i submitted Xerox copy of that edited soft copies to my current employer

at the time of joining (not sure submitted Xerox copies are edited or as it is but i submitted soft copies of educational certificates as it is).

I have not tempered my original mark sheet that is still in normal form so this is not forgery.

My all educational documents are attested by notary but i am sure notary did not check my origionals.

Moreover my all original soft copies are with employer there is no intention of mine to cheat for gaining employment.

Additionally I do not have any profit because of this I got employment on the basis of my experience and qualification.mpered

if xerox copy found tempered it is just mistake because origionals are with my current employer.

Is there any criminal action against this.

Is there any crime from my side.

Is this will be prcecuted under penal act IPC 463 with punishment.

Please suggest on this.

Moreover what shall i do for avoiding any risk, resignation is good option for this.

Dear Sir / Madam,

Don't look too deep into what has happened. Concentrate on your job because that is what the employer will look at more than your qualification certificates which only remain on your personal file for the record.
