I received a job offer from a company on July 27th and accepted it. They initially asked me to join on August 16th, but later changed it to August 17th. Due to a health issue, I couldn’t join on the 17th and informed the HR, requesting a one-day delay to August 18th. They agreed. However, when I arrived on the 18th, the HR said they had revoked the offer because I wasn’t “interested” in joining. Can I file a complaint against them in the Labour Court? I need guidance on what steps I can take.

You might have grounds to file a complaint in the Labour Court. The company’s revocation of the offer, after accepting your request for a one-day delay, could be considered unfair and in breach of the implied contract formed when you accepted the offer. You should consult a lawyer to assess your specific case and proceed accordingly.

A contractor working on a project for a client in India mistakenly billed for an extra expense they weren’t entitled to. The consultant overseeing the project overlooked this error. The client later discovered the mistake and deducted the excess amount from the next payment. They also charged interest at the prevailing Prime Lending Rate (PLR) on the overpayment. The contractor now wants the excess payment recovered, claims the interest shouldn’t be charged, and requests interest on the recovered amount at the market rate. The client argues the contractor intentionally inflated the bill and should view the excess payment as an advance, with the minimum possible interest at the PLR. What’s the fairest resolution to this situation?
