My annual appraisal was supposed to happen in October, but it got pushed to January. Now, I’m being told it’ll be in March. Is this delay legally acceptable? What are my rights as an employee in this situation?

Indian law doesn’t mandate a specific appraisal timeframe. However, any delay impacting your salary or benefits must be communicated clearly. You have the right to inquire about the reason for the delay and its impact on your compensation and promotions.
