Dear Concerned,
You have a full contractual right to resign after paying Rs.1 Lac. After paying the said amount by dispatching a DD of the said amount drawn in favour fo the Employer with a demand of providing you the due relieving letter, you should immediately file a suit for restraining the said company from creating any hurdles in your joining the new Firm.

Dear Sir, to answer your query first the three contracts have to be read in totality to see/examine their legal enforceability. If it is not enforceable or invalid, then you are not bound to pay any money.
