I was working at a client's place through a vendor and received an offer to join the client. When I spoke with my payroll company, they informed me that they hadn't received any information regarding this and advised me not to initiate or engage in any such discussions. Later, I informed my parent company that I had received and accepted the client's offer letter along with the joining date. However, the HR of my parent company mentioned that they had not received any such request from the client. Suddenly, my parent company notified me that I was released from my position at the end of the day before my joining date. They deceived me by withholding this information until the last working day. I questioned them as to how they could release me without the notice period or notice pay as stipulated in my appointment letter. Their response was that there would be no prior confirmation in cases of client absorption. This client absorption process was not outlined in my appointment letter and was not communicated to me regarding its applicability. I am requesting the notice pay as they concealed this information until the last minute and deceived me. Can I take legal action as they failed to provide written notice as per the accepted appointment letter?

In the scenario described, the employer's actions seem to be in violation of the terms stipulated in your appointment letter.
