As a partnership firm, your employer is not legally obligated to provide gratuity or retrenchment benefits. You are not entitled to unemployment compensation in India, as it is not a government-provided benefit.

I’m facing a really tough situation. I’ve been through a lot of mental stress at work because of the bad work culture and office politics. I refuse to play that game and it’s taken a toll on me. I haven’t been going to work for a month now to protect myself. My company is sending me a legal notice because I left before my one-year contract was up (I only worked for 6 months). They want Rs. 1 lakh from me! I can’t afford a lawyer. What can I do?

I’ve been working at a private IT company in Bangalore for the past 8 months. When I joined, I had 5 other job offers, but I chose this one because it’s a product-based company and I thought I’d be secure for at least 3 years. Now, after 8 months, they’re telling me the company is doing well financially and I need to leave within a month! It’s incredibly tough to find a new job in such a short time, especially with my wedding coming up next month. I’m feeling very stressed and lost. What does Indian law say about compensation for being fired in this situation? Any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
