Hi,

I am working as an operations manager in an engineering company in Mumbai. Upon joining, I signed a bond of Rs. 50,000 for six months, which constitutes the probation period. Due to personal reasons, I no longer wish to continue my duties with the current company. If I decide to leave, would I be required to pay the bond amount, or are there alternative options for departing from the company?

I kindly request all experts to provide suggestions.

Thank you,
Jivan Tandel

as our country no banded labour systems so need not to worry about exit.

If you have copy of the bond document, please attach to advice you appropriately. These bonds are no longer legal. To understand the whole thing properly, document is required to be studied.

Employment contract is made by the employer and the employee - inter alia with the right of the employer to terminate you vis-a-vis the right of the employee to leave the job, in accordance with the contract, which cannot be one-sided only as otherwise it will be invalid and illegal. However, it is difficult to comment on how you have become "Bonded Labour" under what compulsion, without perusing your employment contract which you have accepted.

Thanks,
