Legal action against employer for not giving relieving letter


25-Feb-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
Dear Sir, I worked for a company as a Software trainee in Jaipur two years back(Jan 2015 - Nov 2015) for 11 months, and due to some salary issue I resigned the company without surviving notice period. After leaving that company i joined one other org(Nov 15 - current) in Jaipur only. Now again I am looking for a change and selected for one reputed software company for Mumbai location. I am on notice period with my current employer and joining next company in few days. So at the time of my potential new employer's BGV they are asking for relieving letter from my ex employer, without relieving letter they wont onboard me. So I contacted to my ex employer's HR and asked her for the same but she is denying me to give relieving letter. Even I am ready to pay for my notice period amount salary but still she is not supporting me in any way. She has just marked me as absconded from the services due to not completing exit process.Please suggest me how can I get my relieving letter after 2 year

There is no need to take reliving letter from ex employer. You need to take the same from current employer which will be your ex employer after joining new one. You can produce said letter from present employer

What should an employer do if the employee does not receive a letter of resignation? If an employee has not received a relieving note, they can contact their employer to request one. If the employer does not send the letter, an employee may file a complaint or take legal action if the employer refuses to provide it.
