Dear All, I have received an email from my ex-employer mentioning a legal notice. However, all the facts related to fraud that are mentioned were mutually agreed upon, and they have accepted my resignation. Now, after 3 months, they sent a mail and courier which I have not received.

It could be clearly understood from the legal notice that you are guilty; it's my perception. So, you should have a talk with the concerned person at Apollo Munich. If you are innocent, then they cannot take any action against you.
Let's see what is going to happen.

Legal Actions and Consequences
What possible action can they take? Civil or criminal... but I have the evidence to prove my innocence. It was resolved mutually in the past when I resigned, but now they have come back with that?
Please advise on what the consequences will be.

They have conducted the investigation, submitted the charge sheet, and based on that, they have sent you a legal notice from the company. This matter has not yet reached the court, so you should discuss it with them. If it does go to court, it will take a long period of time and you could be in trouble, creating a bad impression on the market. They can charge penalties and jail time.

If the charges mentioned in the legal notice are true, then you both are in trouble. Not every civil suit takes time. Certain suits can end within 6 months too.
Don't send any notices back. Even if you refuse to receive, it will be deemed to have been delivered. If you fail to appear in court, the court can pass an ex-parte decree too. So don't neglect any notice.
If they go ahead with litigation, the court normally won't award 25L as damages. It could be 50k - 1 lakh. This only applies if you represent yourself with the help of a lawyer. If you fail to appear, the court will award whatever the company asks for.
The company can press for criminal charges too if they want. Since there has been no monetary loss to the company, you may be let off with a warning, considering your age and this being your first offense. This again depends on how your advocate handles your case. You can seek remedy on compassionate grounds. Courts generally consider it if the accused is of a young age. They may just warn and impose some penalty.
The best option is to go to the company within 7 days and ask for pardon. Take a lawyer and also some elders in your family who can defuse the situation.
