Resigned Without Full Notice and No Employer Response: What Are My Next Steps?

trnjain7
I was employed in a company for 9 months. I resigned via email and mentioned that I am unable to serve a 30-day notice period, but only 16 days. I didn't receive any reply from the employer. I sent another email notifying them of my last working day and asked for the Full and Final settlement (F&F), but still didn't get a reply. After that, I stopped going to work from the said date and sent an email regarding the F&F and adjustment of the remaining notice period under F&F, but still no response. What should I do under these conditions? Is joining another company considered an offense in this situation?

Kindly revert ASAP.

Key Points to Consider Regarding Resignation

1) Resignation by email is valid only if, according to the contract of employment, one can resign in this manner. In such cases, resignation without acceptance will be valid. However, if the contract specifies a period of employment, such as a 1-year bond period, and there is no monetary penalty specified for breaking the bond, resignation is valid only when accepted.

2) Send a comprehensive letter with all points mentioned through the Registered Ad services of the Post Office.

3) Your Full and Final (F&F) settlement is your right, and they are obligated to pay it. For F&F rules, refer to Indian Labour Laws & Shram Suvidha Simplified.

Dear sir/madam,

Thank you for your guidelines. I only signed a simple agreement that contains a clause stating, "In case of resignation or separation, you have to serve a one-month notice period." However, I have served them 16 days as notice and informed them to deduct the remaining period from my leaves and salary. Is this fully lawful? Kindly guide, and thanks again.
