Hi,
I have been let go after serving the company for 5 months, they said, either you can leave today or you can serve 1 month of performance improvement period of 1 month that is till end of october. While joining, there was 2 lacs of Joining Bonus and in the appointment letter following is mentioned : -
* Joining bonus will be paid out with the first month’s salary. If the employee leaves the organization within a year from the date of joining or the employment is terminated for any reason, they will be liable to repay the entire amount of joining bonus.
What will happen if I am unable to pay because of financial constraint legally

They will not relieve you.

If you are not ready and willing to repay the bonus given to you at the time joining the job and leave the organisation within one year of appointment, then as per the clause mentioned by you, the company will initiate recovery suit to recover the amount from you through court of law.
