Is This Kind Of Employment Bond Is Legal In India?

Thanks tajsateesh,
Your these words cheered up my spirit and I could stop myself by smiling at it. Thanks for devoting thoughts of your experience of life to others so that they cant take wrong diversion in career. Whatever you said is a bitter truth that every one knows but in pain they refuse to accept it as fact. I myself confident and have faith that will take my own decision based on experiences of others and my voice at conscience but not merely based on the my present grief. Ya I agree with you that forum members suggestions have to be treated ONLY as inputs/advice. Thanks once again.

Hello anithamb,
I recollect a Quote: The Wise learn from others' mistakes, the Average Person learns from his/her mistakes, while the Fool doesn't ever learn.
I have also seen another class of people: they NOT only NOT LEARN from any mistake, but misguide/misdirect others to their path..........not sure how to 'define' this category.
CiteHR's efforts, I believe, has been to take all members to category-1...but at the End-of-Day, it's upto the member concerned :-)
Also, I don't think you would have had a chance to pose your query and learn & neither would those who participated in this thread-including me- would have had a chance to share their experiences/knowledge IF CiteHR HADN'T EXISTED.....Right?
So in short--SAY THANKS TO CiteHR.
All the Best.

Hi Sateesh,
I'm having the same query. At the time of the interview, I was told that I will be deployed on a particular technology(Database testing) however, when I joined the company I was asked to do website testing which is less technical in terms of skill from what was committed to me. My prior experience was of very technical profile. So this is cheating on their part.
Also, on the offer letter I had signed on, they had a term that I cannot leave the company before completing 18 months and if I leave the company before this period I will have to pay Rs. 50000 as penalty. However, I had not signed any stamp paper agreement with this employer.
So my question is, whether I have to pay the penalty fee to my previous organisation?
Thanks in advance!
