Hi, sir, my name is Jay. I had an employee whose documents turned out to be fake, and we only discovered this after 11 days of her joining. As a result, we did not issue an offer letter or any other document from the company's side, and we terminated her employment. Now, she is asking for 11 days' salary. According to labor law, do I need to pay her the salary or not? Please help me with this matter.

you took output from her for the 11 days working, now you are denying the payment. Not correct. You should have done this checking before taking her on board. Pay and close the issue. Pon

You state that you haven't given her any joining documents, offer letter, appointment letter, etc. However, you mention that you've terminated her. Before replying to your query, it's important to know how you terminated her. How did you realize that her documents are fake? Do you have conclusive evidence to support this stand? Did she sign any company documents before, during, or at the end of her tenure?
Based on your reply, I can provide pertinent information.
