In my company, I was not provided with an appointment letter at the time of joining. I have worked here for around 1 year and am now leaving this office with only 2 days' notice, after receiving my salary. My question is, since there is no appointment letter, will I face any legal problems?

Since there is no formal contract entered into with the organization, i.e., as you were not given an appointment letter in which the terms and conditions of employment are stated, there is no legal binding on you to serve the minimum notice period to quit the organization, which is generally a 3-month notice period.
Secondly, the organization in which you served for one year cannot establish the relationship between you and the organization as 'Employee-Employer' in the absence of any contractual agreement, i.e., in your case, an appointment letter.
Hence, there will not be any legal complications for you with the organization, assuming that you have not signed any agreements/contracts with the company.
