Overlap of relieving date and joining date

You have posted that:

"I have been issued relieving letter of a private firm (where I worked) of date 15 days later than I joined the Govt Service. As I didn't had the relieving letter at the time of joining, I was asked not to show the experience at that time. In the meantime (after 1 year), I got the fresh appointment in other govt dept. So, here, Should I show the experience of private firm (given overlap of some days b/w private org and 1st govt service)?'

1. Probably you mean that you joined govt service say on 1st of the month and the relieving letter issued by private company shows that you were relieved on 15th of the month.

Is it so?

If yes does the relieving letter states clearly that you completed some formalities on 15 th of the month hence this date is mentioned otherwise your last day/date in office-employment  was say anyday before 1st of the month?

If NO; you are showing 15 days parallel employment with a private company while you were with a govt. establishment.

You can be subjected to disciplinary action.

2.  Who asked you not to show the experience at that time? Were you asked in writing?

Even if you are asked in writing you have concealed and  you can be subjected to disciplinary action.

3. You can not and must not conceal anything.

You should have got the error corrected in Relieving letter immediately.

Rest is upto you.

Do not conceal the fact from your employer, disclose with honesty.

Thanks for the post Kumar.

1. Right, It is so.
    Reliving letter only writes---> relieving date. Nothing else.
    What kind of discilplinary action could be there.
2. I was not asked in writing. Nobody gonna give anybody that in writing here.
3. I didn't try to conceal, but it happened somehow due to unavoidable circumstances. Relieving letter is also not incorrect. So, no ques of error correction. I was given deadline to join at once w/o prior communication. I resigned prior to new joining but couldn't get formalities done on time as it was a long process there. I have nor worked there, neither fetched any salary for those days there.
   All this has happened. I can't reverse or undo that. Now, what is the way out. And what can    be major implications there. Please suggest.

As per your post the error is in relieving letter.The error is to be corrected ASAP. You alone has to write to correct the error. The LWD as mentioned in your resignation is your LWD and it alone should be date of releiving in  relieving letter..................................even if you have handed over the charge later.................................

OR employer can mention that employee resigned on dated.........................LWD is dated....................

You have concealed and it is misconduct and disciplinary action can be taken.The action to be taken is prerogative of the authority and as per rules.

What would be the outcome, can not be forcasted.

"The action to be taken is prerogative of the authority and as per rules."

Ok. And what are the rules. Where to find relevant rules. Any references?

The rules are Service Rules, Conduct and Discipline Rules etc applicable to your establishment  and you need to get these from your establishment.

Show everything to your elders in the family, and after discussing with them to employee's/trade union leadersable labor Law Consultant/service matters lawyer/Law firm and your counsels can provide you all references that you may want.
