""If the training as designated in bond is not provided, then is the agreement valid?""
Most companies when they provide training seek protection by entering into a bond for reimbursement if certain events take place.
You need to clarify whether training shown in bond and actual training was different-nature,institution,duration of training-
""Also during resignation is employee liable to clear three months notice period pay although same is not enshrined in the bond?""
What does your appointment order speak about notice period,payment in lieu of notice etc?
No double penalty can be imposed.
Assessed reasonable costs only can be recovered from employee for breaking the bond.

If you are agreeing to register as an apprentice under Apprenticeship Act , PF is not applicable. Some companies do extend PF cover to the Apprentices as well, it should be welcome. Agreement/ Contract alongwith App-4 is also for one year which is not terminable simply by resignation.The employer is free to recover the actual training cost as breach of contract if one leaves the period of apprenticeship thus agreed.
