Hi,
I have a question regarding an experience letter. If an employee is asking for an experience letter, which one of the following will also be considered:
1) Suppose the employee was on a 2-month probation period.
2) Suppose the employee was on a 2-month training period.
The experience letter and relieving letter will also mention the date of his tenure within the company. I am a bit confused.
Many thanks,

When the job candidate reports for duty on the first day of employment, he/she becomes an "employee" of the company. That is the day on which employment starts. You provide a "Relieving-cum-Experience Letter" for a specific period of employment. This specific period of employment is from his/her first working day till the last working day.
Probationer or Trainee Status
Whether to assign the status of a probationer to the employee or consider him/her as a trainee is as per the internal policies of the company. However, it cannot have a bearing on the employment itself. A "Relieving-cum-Experience Letter" is a document that certifies the employer-employee relationship for a defined time period. While issuing this certificate, few companies mention all the promotions given during the tenure of the employee. Few companies just mention the designation at the time of joining the employment and the designation at the time of leaving the employment. What to mention in the certificate is your call.

Unless a person is employed as an apprentice under the Apprentices Act, the period of probation and training, which is part of the employment of a candidate, will count towards the service period, as Mr. Dinesh said.
