My husband has worked at Airtel for 7 years, getting promoted every year. However, his boss has now given him a low grade in performance and is pressuring him to resign from the company. Please advise on what steps to take and provide information on the termination policy.

Dear Sukhpreet,
Company policy for termination differs from company to company. Also, you have not mentioned whether the boss is new. If yes, he can approach his superiors and sort out the matter. He can also state that he would not like to report to him in the future.
Check out for IJP - Internal Job Posting. Ask your husband to have all communication documented via emails. Even if his boss is not sending any emails, ask your husband to send emails so that he will have everything in a documented format.
These were the general suggestions. To assist you further, kindly post the exact situation. We, all Citehr Members, will be in a better position to help you.

Hello Sukhpreet,
I am with Sonali. Please mention the details of the situation -- the more, the better, as this will provide clarity to the members.
Coming to the bare facts of the case, considering that your husband seems quite efficient, it may be a better option to change jobs rather than getting into the emerging situation at Airtel. Does he have the time to pursue the course of action you suggest? The issue does not necessarily have to be about right or wrong but more about prioritizing.
Sometimes it takes an efficient officer to leave before the employer realizes their true value (I have seen this situation even in very large corporations). Given that your husband has worked here for 7 years, his performance would surely have been noticed by other top officials, apart from his immediate boss.

Based on performance, organizations can promote or demote employees as mentioned in the standing order. If an employee is able to prove their performance is up to the mark, they can ask for a better promotion. Any employee can report harassment to the Grievance Committee, which is established under the Industrial Act when 10 or more employees are employed.

I joined Microsoft one year ago, and I have been given a heavy workload. However, my boss has rated me poorly and is pressuring me to resign daily. At the same time, he is asking me to complete next year's appraisal forms as part of the normal process. He is reluctant to put me on a Performance Improvement Plan, stating that they will issue a negative experience letter at the end of the performance period and terminate me based on poor performance.
