I am working in a company with a strength of 120 employees. This month, my company gave the termination letter to all my colleagues except 5 to 10 employees. I have been working here since 2006. In the termination letter, the company does not give any reason for this action and states that they will pay us one month's salary and other dues like gratuity and leave balance. However, as per my joining letter, my services will be liable for three months after termination.
Seeking Guidance for Termination Compensation
Please guide me on what steps I need to take to receive my three months' salary instead of one month.
Thank you.

A termination letter for a confirmed employee must have a legitimate reason. The clause under which the management has taken this action against you must be clearly specified. If it is mentioned in your appointment letter that you are liable for a 3-month notice pay, then you should approach the Labour Commissioner and lodge a complaint against your employer.
