Hi All, I want to explain my case to you, so please bear with me for some time.

Verbal Commitment and Written Agreement

I got retained in my company, but with that, my company demanded a 'verbal commitment' of 1 year to stay with them. When I received my revised appraisal letter, my HR forced me to write "committed for a year" above my sign-on appraisal letter. As I was planning to stay with the company for at least a year, I wrote it. However, due to personal reasons, I cannot keep my commitment and am planning to move. Since I have given something in writing, I am afraid. Is it legitimate? Can they take any action against me if I decide to leave?

Such commitments are not valid in law and can be contested. The subject is appraisal, and seeking commitment is not in order. Deal with the case carefully. The company cannot stop you from leaving but can delay releasing papers.
