Appointment letter and offer letter


12-Feb-2025 (In Labour & Service Law)
I signed a joining letter, but it only confirms that my personal information is accurate; it does not mention my job profile or salary. After working for two months, the company has still not provided an offer letter or appointment letter. While they have paid my salary, they are holding 10 days' pay. Since there is no official employment document, can I leave without serving a notice period?

If there is no formal appointment of you by the company then the question of you serving the notice period does not arise. It is only if you have been formally appointed that you would serve the notice period. Feel free to contact me for seeking any legal advice/assistance as regards the same.

Well, you can definitely leave without serving a Notice Period, as there is no official Employment Contract. However, if you won't honour your verbal commitment towards serving notice period before leaving job, then, why they will pay your balance pay of 10 Days?
