Hello Ajay: Thanks for your quick response. Please tell me if there were no prior terms on my appointment letter and that I have not agreed to the given terms, will I or shall I go for a legal suit now against the employer? I have recently resigned from my position and Need my relieving letter along with all compensations w.r.t this issue. What is the way forward??
1) litigation is an expensive proposition .
2) further litigation is long drawn process
3)send email to company to furnish relieving letter plus your salary dues and settle your other claims
4) wait for a week then issue legal notice to company in this regard .
1. What is your status in the said Company?
2. Are you an employee or a leasor or representative of the leasor?
3. Have you received your appointment letter? Are you receiving salary through salary slip or getting paid through voucher?
4. Wa there any mention of your probationery period?
5. If you are an emloyee, you can refuse to sign the said agreement and claim the EMIs illegally deducted from your salary,
6. In case you are terminated, you can file a complaint case before the local labour commissioner for relief.
1. Litigation is expensive and may be disproportionate to the amount for which the said litigation has been initiated,
2. Try other non expensive methods,
3. Send them a legal notice,
4. Lodge a police comlaint for cheating you,
5. Lodge a complaint case before the local Labour Commissioner.
1. The obligation to the terms of the lease agreement would arise from he date on which you sign the agreement. Until and unless the agreement has been signed there is no obligation in force.
2. You have the right to refuse to sign the agreement. After refusal you can recover from the company the amount which has been deducted from your salary.
1. Since you have resigned from the company you may issue a notice through your lawyer to the company for the settlement of all dues including refunding the amount which was deducted from your salary towards the car lease.
2. If the relieving letter is not issued then move to the court.
Send a legal notice and wait till the completion of the notice period, if they are not ready to make the payment within notice period then file a civil suit for recovery against them before civil court and claim your money with interest and compensation.
