Your wife should immediately inform the consultancy firm in writing about her withdrawal, including the reason for it. It is advisable to consult with a lawyer to understand the specific terms of her contract and explore legal options, including seeking compensation for any potential damages.

I joined an IT company in April and was working diligently. Everything was going well until a disagreement with my boss on June 17th. He sent me home, and soon after, I received an email from HR informing me of my termination. I was under a 10-month bond agreement, but I haven’t received any official termination letter. I’ve repeatedly emailed them about my salary for the 16 days I worked, but haven’t gotten any response. They seem unwilling to pay. Coming from a middle-class family, I’m lost and unsure of what to do next. Can you please advise me on what steps I can take?

I was marked absent for 210 days, with 78 days considered unauthorized and 132 days treated as unauthorized absence.

They paid me for 96 days during this period, claiming my leave applications were denied. Can I challenge this in court?
