I worked at Bajaj Finserv as an apprentice, and my job was a work-from-home position. I underwent a two-week online training session. After the training, I left my job. Some days later, I received an email from BFL demanding 2600 Rs as DBT recovery charges for an alleged excess salary payment. However, I hadn't received any salary for those two weeks. Subsequently, I started receiving emails from their law firm regarding this matter, stating that I needed to pay 2600 Rs from my supposed salary or face legal action. I reached out to my HR, who insisted that I needed to make the payment. I then showed her my bank statement as evidence that I had not received any salary. Following this, she called me and advised me to disregard those emails. I also consulted with a lawyer who informed me that the case was baseless since no payment had been made, and it was unlikely for a company to pursue legal action over just 2600 Rs. I am concerned if this issue could potentially affect me in the future. Do companies like Bajaj sue their employees for recovering 2600 Rs?

Dear Anonymous,
The claim is void in the absence of payment or excess payment as the party claims. You should write a letter quoting your discussion with the person, send it by registered post as well as via email. Leave the incident in the backyard of your memories for the future.
