Hello ,
I am currently working in a small sw services firm , our company is a totally a project based firm , now the thing is when i joined the firm they had a good on going project and they trained me well for that project, however shortly after that there was news that the project that they had trained me for is no more in existence and i have been sitting with out any kind of work for the last 6 months(doing some petty IT job on the fly).
I thought that may be the company is in transition phase and there would be lots to come however things are not so even after 6 months, in lieu of that i started looking out for a company having good stable projects of their own .
I landed up an offer with a good IT firm and there by tendered my resignation to the present company, now here in starts the problem , this company has a notice period of 3 months , I have already completed my 1 Month and 8 days till date of their notice period and my present company is not ready to budge with their notice period ( i.e of 3 months) , and are having meetings daily trying to coax me to re-consider my resignation.Now i have been a loyal employee through out my stay with a good reputation for my work till now and have not taken a single day of leave . I have created my own mark and would like to move ahead with a clean record i.e relieving letter however i am not sure as to whether my present company will give me this relieving + experience letter as going by the past record of this company they have had not given many guys their due relieving letters and instead harassed them mentally , they are not even ready to let anyone leaving buy out their remaining notice period.
Now i am not sure as to what should i do , i talked the same with my joining company and they have no objection if i join them w/o relieving letter( i have to join them next month i.e after 47 days of notice period) , but i want to have one for the sake of my career and future or if not will my present company tarnish my image .
I would like some advice on the above matter as i feel this is the right forum , request help from all on this regards , I would also like to know if there is a legal way of doing it and whom to approach regarding all this .
Thanks,
M.Roy

P.S: I have given them all options for relieving me early.
1) Will train any new guy and make him productive within 45 days - They said 'No'
2) I tried re-commending someone too - They said 'No'
