Dear Honourable Lawyers,

 

Kindly guide me on below situation i m facing.

 

Two years back..i had resigned from a company without serving notice period ( as i have to rush to control my parental business loss  & when i asked for my dues ( PF, Form 16, Expenses ) from  co.- they sent my Co. notice to pay for Notice period..... So i stopped asking for my dues..After two years..they have sent me a legal notice thru Civil Suit ( in District Court) asking for all claims amounting rs 58K + damages + interest

 

1. Throwing more light on situation : i was on probation during this period..and (co. acts smarts..they call me in between to give them hand over of  information to new joining collegues and given me the Confirmation letter..which i ignore there itself..and havent received it.

 

2.  On Probation..it was 1 mth notice..and on confirmation : it was 3mths.. ( I m working on Manager Position in Education Service Industry)

 

Queries...

 

1. How to avoid legal hassels in this case..and what to reply..in case i hv to go for it.

 

2. As i have visited the office twice.. ( 1 for half day, 2 for 3 hrs for Hand over) (mentioned in daily in/out register of co. (copy is not wid me) after resignation and within 1month of Resigning, Can i count this...to point my concern of properly hand over and didnt deserve to pay any amount.

firstly keep all documents ready with you which can make your case much clear & all communication exchanged must be in written form for reference

as for notice is concern its a simple civil matter.

find a lawyer and file your reply on the guidance of your lawyer but firstly file with your own name (if you want matter to be settled amicably) otherwise with lawyers name (which will have some impact on other party)

choice is yours !!!

Your query has been met by Mr. Bhandari basing on limited info .supplied. Better, contact an experienced local lawyer specialising in Civil/ service matters for deciding theproper manner of resolving the issues after examining the facts of the case and evidences available .
