For example, if my relieving date is on 23rd September (Monday) in the current organization, can I join the next organization immediately on the next day if they have given me the date of joining as 24th September (Tuesday)? (Assuming both organizations are in the same city and I don't need to relocate).
Joining a new organization immediately after relieving
Is it totally fine, or will there be any issues due to it? Do I need to request the next organization to postpone the date of joining? Please advise me since I am not very familiar with job switches and quite scared that something might go wrong and affect my career. Thanks in advance.

Dear member, Yes, you can take a new employment on the very next day of your relieving from the previous organisation. Unless there is an overlap, there are no legal issues. Thanks, Dinesh Divekar

You can take the new job the next day regardless of the location. I have done the same in a couple of my employments. You need to ensure that you complete all the exit formalities and receive the relieving letter on the last working day. The date of exit should also be the last day at the existing company to avoid any challenges in the future.

There is nothing wrong or illegal about joining a new company the day after leaving your previous employment. Ensure that all official formalities are completed before the new joining date. The old company has marked the exit date as 23rd Sept '2024 in all records and on the EPFO portal.

We have seen a few queries in the recent past on the 'overlapping' of the date of relieving and the date of joining. In order to avoid any confusion later, I would advise you to first receive and check your relieving date as stated in your Relieving Letter. If it is dated 23.9.24, which is a Monday, then you should also join the new company on 24.9.24, which is a Tuesday. No issue.
1) Ensure that your Date of Relieving is correctly stated therein (sort out any Notice Period issues if any).
2) Also, ensure that in your PF records, the Exit date is promptly marked as 23.9.24.
