From my penultimate company, I have an experience letter stating the employee ID, along with the start date and end date. They didn't provide a relieving letter. Is there anything else required, like a relieving letter?

Hi Sudheendra,
Most companies issue the relieving letter on the last working day of the employee, provided all the exit formalities have been completed. The experience letter will be sent to employees within a week or 10 business days.
Meanwhile, if a candidate needs to join a new employer, they can show the relieving letter and inform that the experience letter will follow. HRs are aware of this practice, and the relieving letter is issued with this intention.
In your case, since you already have the experience certificate, it should meet the requirements of the new employer. If the new employer asks for a relieving letter, you can refer to the old employer for any reference.
The purpose of the relieving letter is to indicate that you have been relieved from the service of the company starting from X date. This information is already included in the experience certificate, so there should be no issues.
