My previous employer fired me citing contract violations: not reporting to the head office and starting a new company while employed. But here’s the truth: my mother fell ill, so I went to our branch in another city. While there, I found a great opportunity to start a business with friends. I resigned, asking for early release, but they wanted me back. I refused and they fired me, demanding two months’ salary. What are my chances of winning a legal case against them?

Based on Indian laws, your chances of winning a legal case depend on the specific clauses in your employment contract. Your employer’s claim of contract violations is debatable, as you were attending to a family emergency and then resigned. However, the demand for two months’ salary could be valid if the contract states a notice period. You should seek legal advice to assess your specific situation.
