Employement bond

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 23 August 2011 This query is : Resolved
There is one discrepancy out here.

As per my offer letter and Appointment letter it says "Service Agreement:

"Post your joining, should you accept any specialized training whether in India or abroad, you will be
required to commit to serve (Company name removed) for a minimum period of 12 months as per the (Company name removed)
policy. You will be required to enter into a Service Agreement, as per (Company name removed)policy on
Training, supported with a Guarantee in the form and manner decided by (Company name removed). You are under
no obligation to accept any training requiring a commitment to serve (Company name removed)on your part.
However, once accepted by you, it will be a binding contract."

As per the above it clearly says 12 months of bond but on Actual non-judical stamped paper, They have mentioned 24 months.and I signed both Appointment letter(12 months) and actual bond(24 months).But I was under impression that bond will be for 1 year as we get offer letter first and accept it and second comes Bond.So they should not have made this mistake in my Offer,Appointment and Bond ?

Can they waive off the bond on this ?

or will I have to pay ? Please reply and help me .....

the appointment letter mentions minimum period of 12 months . has the company sent you abroadfor training .?
if so company will seek to recover money spent on you .
you have signed service agreement wherein company has sought to recover amount spent on your training . the bond was for 24 months to recover training cost .

if you comit breach of contract you will have to pay

no, they have not sent me abroad and even no special training was given to me.from first day I was on production floor and set with a senior resource who told me about the tool and I started working.

My question is here

they should have mentioned 24 months in my offer and Appointment letter but it was not the case.So on the basis of this mistake can't they weave off ?? as I m leaving after 1 year as I agreed on offer and Appointment letter(12 months).
