It is preferable to reply to such letters, a mere denial of the demands work well too. The demands being unjustified or too high can only be justified depending upon your terms and conditions mentioned in your job offer letter.
Dont respond. As per S - 27 of contract act, bond period is illegal in India and not enforceable. You have already left the company with your salary.
At best if you were under probation period, they may try to recover any amount spent on your training. Otherwise it is not possible.
One has to see the agreement copy before giving any further advise. If agreement says breach of bond period is damages then you are not liable to pay them any. Otherwise, it if is written that you shall pay X amount for training, then it is difficult.
However, conduct of the parties and the manner in which you resigned is also important

Hi!
Strictly speaking, your company can indeed file a case against you and recover its dues. However, dues cannot be unreasonable and astronomical. Regarding how you can escape the case or heavy dues, I would be able to explain you once I read your employment contract.
Also, don't ever write or say "I broke the contract". Why are you admitting it in public?. Anyhow, contact me to know further.
