Please advice

 

Hi All,

I was an employee of Computer Sciences Corporations and was a permanent employee of CSC I was drawing a salary of 8.5 Lakhs per annum.

Last month on March 26th 2014 I have been selected for IBM through Alchemy Solutions.

Alchemy requested me to join IBM with short notice period and offered 12 Lakhs per annum on 1st April 2014 by sending the offer letter.I have accepted the offer letter and told them that I'll be joining on 21st April 2014.

My company CSC had a notice period of 2 months but since Alchemy was requesting early join I negotiated the notice period with CSC.

After I got released from CSC on 11th April 2014 and was supposed to join IBM Alchemy is telling to cut down my salary to 7.2 Lakhs where as I was getting 8.5 Lakhs from CSC.

They are taking advantage of my situation. 

Alchemy never informed about my pay cut when I was serving my notice period. They are informing it now when I came out of the company and shows clearly that they taking advantage of me.

Please help me as I have been a cruel victim of Alchemy Solutions. When questioned Alchemy it is telling the Vender IBM is not agreeing for pay band and putting the entire blame on IBM.

I was a permanent employee of CSC and Alchemy purposefully made me unemployed. I have not other source of income to lead my family.

Please help me. How can I proceed legally 

Thanks and regards,
Babu K

With all the available records and evidences in your possession, you should approach the top management  of Alchemy giving in writing about your intention to join them on the agreed package (12 lacs) and would like to sign necessary papers for fulfilling the requisite formalities in that respect, for this get an acknowledgment and based on their reply, if they are reluctant to accept your candidature on the earlier agreed salary package, you may choose to initiate legal action against them.

Hi Sir,

After receiving the offer letter I accepted the offer and

sent an acknowledged the mail saying that I will be king on our before

21st April. When I went join Alchemy on 21st they told the client not

yet confirmed your package and told to wait for two days.

 On 25th they sent me a mail saying to accept offer for 7.2 lakhs instead

of 12 lakhs. I was completely shocked as I was a permanent employee of 

 CSC with 8.5 lakhs as my salary. Please let the best approach to file case

against them. I need a quick result as I'm an unemployee now.

follow the advise of Kalaiselvan.  You can approach consumer forum for deficiency of service of the Alchemy.

Who are Alchemy Solutions? Are they recruiting agents? It is doubtful whether you will get back  the 12 lakhs job.       But you can certainly file a complaint before the Consumer Forum either to get you the same or equivalent employment or give you adequate compensation. You may also ask for a compensation of Rs.1 lakh per month until final disposal of the case. Make both Alchemy and IBM as Opposite Parties.

Hi Madam,

Thanks for your reply. Alchemy Solutions are training partners and recruiters for IBM. 

Please let me know the process to file complaint in consumer forum. 

I want to teach both Alchemy and IBM so that they cant dare to do anything with others.

Regards,

Babu

I am Sir and not Madam. Which State and which City are you situated. What is the address of Alchemy Solutions and what is their exact relationship with IBM. Do they give their service exclusively to IBM only?Have they got a single address or do they have All-India existence with offices in several cities? If you had got the IBM job at which place would you have been posted?

Consumer Protection Act is a central legislation applicable throughout India. But States can make Rules. Certain aspects of making application would depend on the Rules.

You send  all the information and more and scanned copies of all documents to me by email. I shall tell you how to proceed after that. I may require more information also, which I shall ask you later. I have sent you my email id by PM.
