Good evening Ishan. even though you never entered into a formal contract with the company, your salary slips are proof of your employment, temporary or permanent. in the absence of any documentation or rules of service, "unsatisfactory performance" is vague and arbitrary. i would suggest you address this issue directly with the HR or whoever is in charge and demand that you ought to be paid the 3rd month's salary even if your employment is terminated. If they refuse, you can send them a legal notice which usually suffices. If they still do not pay the 3rd month's salary, you can take them to court. However this is only if there was never any documentation or rules/regulations provided to you by the company at the time of joining. For any further queries, feel free to contact me.

I got an email offer from a private Software company stating Monthly salary, Start date,3 months contract, Title, Client etc. I accepted the offer through email. But my start date has still not honored and 15 days completed from Start date now but I have still not started. They say client is delaying due to COVID-19 and say they will start in another 1 week. Can I take any legal action. Based on their email only I accepted and cancelled all my other assignments and also my job search.

Dear All, I was working as an Senior IT consultant in a company for last 2.2 years and suddenly terminated unlawfully cause of poor performance. Before the termination they did send any warning or PIP. In last 2 yeras I was among the top performar in the office. I requested to senior manager to reconsider the termination. They asked for few times and called me for full & final settlement. I got the cheque for full & final settlement but yet not received any documents from the company. I have only the salary slip of last 6 months. After the full & final settlement they are forcing me to resign. If I resign then they will only provide me the documents. Please suggest me what are the legal way I can fight against them? Can I file a case of unlawful termination and Mental harassment? What are the IPC act I can use ? Regards, Manav
