Hi,
I was selected for an embedded systems company in my campus selections. The company offered training with 6000/- rs compensation per month and after completion of training, it would be 2.5 LPA. They have made us sign an agreement of 3 years with the company, if you don't serve for 3 years you have to pay 2Lacs. Along with agreement, they have taken 4 blank cheques. I have joined the company accepting all the terms.
The training period was about to be for 6 months and it was completed for me in 7 months but the organisation has not given me the expected payroll i.e; 2.5LPA. Training has got extended to 1 year and my payroll has not updated. I was even not feeling comfortable with the managers I was working with. So, I have informed all my situation to the HR head of the organisation. They've asked me to leave the company after paying 2 lacs.
I come from a middle-class family 2 lacs rupees is a huge amount and so, the situation made me abscond the company though I have informed HR of the organisation before leaving.
I have received 3 threatening letters from organisation to pay the amount if not, legal actions will be taken. Recently, I have received a notice from the court. I need help, as we are not in a position to pay 2 lacs and we don't want to be dragged into the legal procedures. How can I proceed?
