Employee Salary Deduction by some percent for non performance - No PIP given

Neha Shrivastav
Dear all, Pls confirm if the employer can deduct employees salary by some percent for non performance. No PIP given nor is any such clause mentioned in the appointment letter.

Dear Neha,
Your employer may not hike the salary but can't reduce the salary for which one hired. The salary reduction is done, when one found guilty of mis-conduct as a punishment. One can go legal against such illegal practice.
