Is there any rule that employee has to serve the notice period in any organisation?

Dear Bhaskar,
As mentioned by Mr Mukul, the terms of conditions applicable to employee and employer will be as per the letter exchanged and sign by both the parties. Since you have mentioned that your letter of appointment a notice period is 30 days which is applicable to you. Any change subsequently will not be applicable to you as the announcement is after thought.
However, pl maintain good relationship even while leaving.

Hi,

Congratulations! for getting married.. best wishes to you both, have a very long and a happy married life :)

First, I would like say that your company doesn't have any personal grudges with you that they will suddenly change their policy on your resignation. Is it that lot of employees are resigning from your company and to control the employee turnover they had to take such decision and immediate action.

But yes I do feel that implementation of any policy at a short notice is little unethical practice and may not benefit their employees in such cases. As many others have also suggested you to speak to your boss because he/she can actually help you basis your personal problem/requirement. And more over you are willing to pay for your notice period, I don't think they should have problem in adjusting. I hope you are not in between of any critical project, if so; then you must also try and complete it before you leave the company, it's your responsibility.

All the Best!

Regards,

Dear Bhaskar,
I think you have to acknowledge on to the comments given by our fellow members.

I am of the opinion that it would be better to pay the amount due as per the new policy if you want to get relieved within 30 days instead of entering into conflict with the management.

Where are you? Hope you served at least for one month notice period or paid for it:)

Hi, presuming that the amendment came befor your resignation was accepted, it is binding on you. However, the timings of both the actions i.e. your resignation and the amendment would tilt the legal battle in your favor.
This being the legal position, I would still suggest you to go by what "Capable" and Kannan have suggested. Considering the facts, better to talk and settle and if no settlement is feasible, just pay and move out.

Dear Mr.Basker,
Please follow the Capable's & Mr.Kannans advise. It is quite sensible and reasonalble. If you follow this will be good for your carrier growth where ever you are.

Dear Mr.K.C.Seshadri,
You have not made any mention about your offer of appointment. Does it state any notice period? Are you aware of any standing orders applicable in your industry.
The statement regarding leave availed by you.
The legal position is, the company has already deducted wages for the days you were on LOP and CL as per your eligibility. These cannot be considered for considering the notice period.
In short, if in your offer of appointment you are required to give 30 days notice or 30 days wages in lieu of notice you will be legally bound to do it. Other than this there you are neither required to serve for the LOP days nor CL availed.
