Can I start similar business if I have agrred not to do on papers
05-May-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
Hi, I was working with an open source Telecom software company.The comapny was using open source softwares only.so there in nothing proprietary or with patent in that. During my tenure I have a signed a document in company letter head where it is mentioned that I cannot work with a competitor or can't start a business in same domain for 3 years. Now I want to start a similar business. Where I will be using the same open source technologies for the development So my question is whether the document signed is valid before the law? Since I have an experience in a technology, I should use that
If you signed an agreement that you cannot start a similar line of business for 3 years then if you start similar line of business then your ex company can file a case against you and claim for compensation.
