Hi,
I was working at Consortium Clinical Research Pvt Ltd for 11 months with a 1-year bond. Since I received another good offer, I decided to resign from Consortium. When I informed them about my resignation, they requested me to pay 30,000 INR for breaking the bond and not serving the notice period. They mentioned that they would provide me with my relieving letter only after receiving this payment. I complied and paid the amount in cash and completed all handovers.
However, upon requesting my relieving letter, I was informed that the individual who received my handover did not complete the necessary work, resulting in a hold on my documents. Subsequently, both the HR and MD are not responding to my calls and emails. Despite fulfilling all handovers and making the payment, they are withholding my documents.
I would appreciate your guidance on how to proceed in this situation.
Thank you.

Hi,
Anyway, you worked for 11 months, and to complete, there is only 1 more month. Anyway, you would have given a notice period of 1 month so you may complete a 1-year bond period.
Moreover, employee bonds are not valid in India, and no employer can take a bond from the employee. Do you have a receipt for giving 30K in cash?
It would be better if you go to the office directly and meet the respective person.

Dear Sir,
Thank you for your reply. My parents and I went to the office directly to meet him, but he was not there. He asked me not to involve my parents in it, providing silly excuses and deliberately delaying the matter. As this is urgent for me, the intentional delays are causing frustration. I have already waited for more than 40 days, and he is still asking me to wait further. Please advise on the legal steps I can take or if I should report this to the police. This mistreatment is not only affecting me but has been done to many others as well. It is crucial that they do not repeat this behavior towards any other employees.
Thank you.

Dear HR Professionals,
I work in a real estate company as an HR Executive since 2014. I have something to ask and need your guidance on one of my problems. I lent an amount of 4800 + 4000 + 1800 = 10,600/- to a female staff member in my office in May and June. Now, when I asked her to return the entire amount I had given her, she created a hoax. She blamed me in front of all the staff, claiming that I used to misbehave with her and harass her in some way. She also denied borrowing this amount of money from me and asked for proof that I had lent her that money.
Now, seniors, please guide me on this issue and provide a remedy. If I were to approach our HR Head and give him a written account of this situation, what would the outcome be (negative or positive)? What should I do to retrieve my money from her?
Thank you for your assistance.
