Need advice on termination notice
19-Jun-2023 (In Civil Law)
I was working with a company as a freelancer. As per their agreement, I provided them with 30 days notice period and completed my 30 days notice period. After completion of 30 days notice period I asked them to provide me with NOC or confirmation that all contracts between us are void. They never replied to my request even after 2 reminders. Is it required for me to obtain such confirmation or NOC before I venture into new projects ? In case they do not reply even after reminders as per law does the contracts get void after certain period of time ?
If Your notice of 30 days to the employer was exactly in accordance with agreement, then the agreement has come to an end. There is no requirement for NOC or any other document, unless the new agreement you intend to enter requires such document.

In such circumstances what you can do is that you write a comprehensive letter and metion that you have served notice period and followed all rules. You also mention that in case you don't hear anything within a week , they will be bound by the said letter.

Since there was a prior agreement between you and the company to engage your services and you had served the agreed notice period to the Company, the agreement should have been a valid one (However, the agreement needs to be analysed to see the effect of the agreement as to whether the agreement was valid in law or not.)
Further, just because your agreement with the company has been terminated does not per se mean that the agreement between you and the company is void. The is no declaration/confirmation that needs to be given to that effect to mark an agreement as void. Once the agreement has been validly executed, it remains valid throughout its term and shall not be void.
Lastly, though an NOC is not a mandatory requirement for venturing into new projects, however, if your new employer insists on one, then get an NOC from your previous employer. (An NOC would always be useful, so insist on one.)
