Hello, I have 11 days of dual employment, which includes last Saturday and Sunday. I submitted my laptop on Friday. This overlap is not between my recently joined company and my previous one. It is between my last and last-to-last company. I had a bond against which I had to make a payment. I tried to negotiate this bond amount initially, but when there was no option, I decided to pay the full amount. While I was arranging the money, my date of joining the new company arrived.
I started there and paid the bond amount the following week. Hoping for negotiation, I didn't ask them to release me early. Since my last company didn't raise any concerns about this, I was unaware of dual employment or overlap until my current company raised this issue after being with them for 2 months. According to them, dual employment is illegal in India. I tried to explain the situation, but they were not convinced. Please advise me on what I should do to save my job.
