Dear Suchita D,
Can you please provide us with more information about the situation? What was the desired level of performance? When was it communicated to the employee concerned and how was it communicated? When did the authorities discover the under-performance of the employee? Was the employee informed of the consequences of under-performance, and if yes, how was it communicated? Was it a warning letter? What was the employee's reaction upon receiving the communication? Did you obtain any formal commitment from the employee? What was the role of the HOD in addressing the under-performance of the employee?
There are many questions associated with your post. Additionally, please confirm whether your company intends to merge the performance improvement plan (PIP) with the notice period.
Thanks,

I think you are putting someone on a PIP to give them a warning. Many companies consider PIP as a notice period. If the employees do not improve, they are out.
If you have not given a warning earlier, then nothing stops you from putting the employee on a PIP because by doing so, I believe you are intimating them that you are not happy with their performance.

Dear Suchita D,
Legally, you can't do so without having a laid-down performance matrix of every employee, and performance should also remain as the conditions of service. The poorly rated employees can be placed under a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) for not meeting the expected outputs.
In our country, the law is so weak that any violations become acceptable and valid over time.
