I am Rajesh. I have been working at Home Credit for the last two years. I am facing an issue because the company did not provide any increment or appraisal this year. As far as I know, according to government rules, the company is supposed to give some increment every year. However, I received nothing. I am unsure why the company did not provide any increment or appraisal as per government rules.
I have been on vacation for a long time due to the passing of my grandfather, following Hindu traditions. This led to my absence from the office. I have explained my situation in a circular manner, and they are insisting that I return by Diwali. They mentioned something about my absence resulting in a warning letter, which concerns me. If you are referring to my absence as a serious issue, please advise me on how to address the situation regarding the increment and appraisal.
Thank you for your assistance.

Increment and Appraisal Concerns
Please note that as long as companies pay minimum wages to their staff, it is not mandatory to give increments to employees. You have a mistaken view that there is a government rule to provide annual increments.
Observing Mourning Period and Office Celebrations
As per Hindu tradition, upon the death of a close relative, mourning is generally observed for 14 days. Did the Deepavali celebration fall during this 14-day mourning period? If yes, you could have communicated this properly. If the Deepavali celebrations were held after the completion of the mourning period, then there was no reason for you to back out from any office celebrations. Possibly, your seniors perceived the reason for the death of your grandfather as an excuse to abstain. That is why they threatened to mark you as absent.
Feedback on Post Quality
Now, for the last feedback on the quality of the post. The last 3-4 lines of your post are a mess. What you have written, you would know better. While writing a post in a professional forum like this, you neither bothered to check the structure of the sentences nor the grammar. One who does not care about the quality of one's work, how can you expect that person to be valued by others?
Therefore, at this stage, the only advice that can be given is to stop being reckless, be observant, and improve the quality of your work.
