My friend works on a government contract and applied for a new government job. He marked “no” for the “in-service” question on the application since his current office wouldn’t give him a No Objection Certificate (NOC). If he gets selected, he plans to resign from his current job and join the new one. Could there be any issues with this? He doesn’t want to lose any benefits from his current job.

Your friend’s approach could lead to issues. If his current employer discovers he was working on a government contract without an NOC, he may face disciplinary action, including termination. Moreover, his new employer might consider his application dishonest and withdraw the offer.

I’ve been with my current company since May 2015. After a year, they sent me to China with the factory head for a 5-day training program. They made me sign a bond, saying I’d have to transfer to another branch for 1-2 months after the training. I agreed and signed. Now, they’re saying I have to stay at this branch permanently, and I’m not comfortable with that. My family is in Mumbai, and my 2-year-old daughter needs medical attention. My wife is alone and can’t take her to the hospital daily. What should I do?

Hi there, I’ve been working for a group of companies since May 2008. They moved me to a different company within the group in November 2012, but I never formally resigned from the original company. I’m planning to leave for a new job in February 2017. My question is, will I still be eligible for gratuity considering my continuous employment with the group since 2008? If they refuse to pay, can I legally pursue it? I’ve worked with them for almost nine years and it would be a significant loss for me if I’m denied my gratuity. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve signed a one-year contract with my new job. But, the work environment isn’t what I expected. If I leave before the year is up, I have to pay back 3 months of salary. I really don’t want to pay that! What are my options for leaving without the penalty?

Namaste. I’m a doctor, having completed my MS degree a year ago. I’m looking for a hospital with good surgical exposure to enhance my skills. However, the salary offered is significantly lower than what’s standard (around ₹18,000 per month). Despite this, they’re asking for a two-year commitment. We’ve decided to use an affidavit for this contract, but they’re refusing any bond or notice period. Will this affidavit legally bind me if I resign after a year?

Hi, I’ve been working as an executive in a public sector company for 4 years and 6 months. My 5-year bond ends in August 2016. I’m planning to start my own business (everything’s in place) while still working full-time. What challenges could I face? Would an LLP be a better choice than a Private Limited company for a new venture?

Previous Article My husband is a government employee, having inherited his father’s job after his passing. His father had two wives, the first sadly deceased. Now, his stepmother, who lives separately and receives a pension of around ₹8,000, is demanding that my husband build her a house. He has refused, but she’s threatening to file a legal case against him. Is her claim valid? Furthermore, she often tries to guilt him by saying he only got the job because of her.
Next Article My marriage, which took place on 15th August 2012, has been increasingly difficult. Despite working in an IT company for years, my husband has created a lot of problems. He has been emotionally and physically abusive, even though I filed a police complaint against his violence last year. For over a year and a half, he hasn’t contributed a single rupee towards our household expenses, including our 3-year-old son’s school fees and rent. He also makes false accusations about my character. I am at my wit’s end and need guidance on how to proceed with divorce proceedings in India.
