i have 2 files A and B. From A, am trying to call a sub routine defined in B

code snippet A

 verify($fh, 'host', 'state', 'testname');

code snippet in B 

 sub verify {

        my $fh = shift;
        my $routes = 375000;
        my $inet0_total = 3436701;
        my $inet0_active =  498151;
        my $inet6_total = 115803;
         my $pass_count = 1;
        our  $count_adj = 0;
        our  $count_bfd = 0;
        our $tc_count = 1;
        ...............
         $tc_count = $tc_count + 1;

verify subroutine is called in file A at each testcase s, hence the tc_count should also be incremented. I defined tc_count as global using "our" hoping that tc_count will increment each time when the testcases are executed. But tc_count always shows as 1 for any testcases. Is there a way to retain the tc_count to its current value(after each increment), when the the subroutine verify is called from file A

here is the output after the execution for reference
