YES.
s.subramanian (Expert) 25 September 2010
No. it is wrong. Since it relates to the performance for the previous financial year,it becomes payable to the employee whether he continues with the employer in the present year or not. It becomes an amount lawfully due to the past employer. It cannot be forfeited at all. Such a forfeiture is illegal and erroneous. The affected past employee has the right to approach the court of law for the recovery of the same.

No. the opinion of Mr. Subramaniam is correct. I fully agree with him.
