Employers fooling around

Hi,

I need your help in solving my current situation. I work for ABC company but my payroll company is 123. I have signed a bond of 1 year which says that I need to serve the ABC company for 1 year & if I resign before that, I will have to pay 50k against the bond. The probation period from 123 company is 3 months & I have succesfully completed my probation. (I'm a female employee).

The issue is, I had applied for 5 days of leaves one month back to my ABC manager (8 days in total including weekend). My manager approved only for 2 days & rejected for 3 days. So I personally requested him a lot & his manager to approve all the leaves as they were important to me since I had to travel. He did not agree. So I had no choice, but take sick leaves for 2 days. I was resuming to work for the 3rd day and raised transport request. I later came to know that my transport request requires my ABC manager's approval, only then they can provide me cab. I was confused as to what happened suddenly. Then I received an SMS from my 123 manager asking me to cancel my cab & not attend office the next day as he wanted to discuss something with me before I resume to work. I followed his instructions & cancelled my cab & texted my ABC manager that I have cancelled my cab & not going to attend work because my 123 manager asked me not to.

The next day, I received a call from the 123 HR saying that she has received a feedback mail from ABC manager saying that I have behavioral issues/nonperformance issues/taken unapproved leaves, hence I should not attend office until I'm instructed to. So I really got tensed & asked the HR if my ABC manager has provided any evidence or proof against any of the above mentioned allegations. She said, she received it. I asked her to share with me as I don't feel from any angle that I have done anything wrong. She did not provide me anything.
Later I received an email warning from the 123 HR saying that I have behavioral issues/nonperformance issues/taken unapproved leaves & that mail should be considered as a warning mail. I really really got annoyed & replied back asking for proof and evidence for these allegations as I found it totally false & baseless. I also mentioned in the email that I am mentally too frustrated and stressed because of all the things happening at work & requested them to disregard that bond so that I can resign & move out. Again I did not receive any reply to that.

The next day, I received a call from the 123 HR saying that my bond will be disregarded & I can send the resignation asap so that my F&F settlement money can be processed asap. They had kept my salary on hold because they wanted to pay it as my F&F. I told them that I will not resign since I had mentioned that under mental pressure & I din't really mean I would resign. I am willing to work since I find the job profile interesting & challenging for my professional growth. But they went on calling me & texting me & pressurising me to resign & hand over the ABC company's assets (laptop) to the company asap. I did not agree to resign. I also mentioned that I dont think I have done anything wrong , so I wont resign. If they still feel I should go, then they can fire me with appropriate proofs of my wrong doings (which I was sure, they wouldn't find anything, because I never did anything wrong).
But they are not firing me, nor they provided any evidence against the allegations made.

Since I was banned from going to office, I respected that ban and stayed at home for 3 working days. I thought, maybe they'll update me on joining back but nothing happened. So I decided to resume to office myself & I went to office & realised that my access card to enter office got banned. After investigation from the security, I came to know that my ABC manager has sent an email request to deactivate my access card & that is on hold. I immediately sent an SMS & mail to my ABC manager saying that I'm outside office & my access card is banned. He dint care to reply. Then after a while, I received a call from 123 HR saying that you are banned from going to office that's why they have banned your access card. I told the HR, there is no such email communication from anyone on my 'BAN' period, so I came to office to resume to work. This is how they started forcing me to resign.

I have many proofs and email communications on how unprofessional the 123 HRs are because I had to follow up many times to get my medical insurance. For 4 months, I had to continuosly remind them that I need it at any cost. I also have proofs against my ABC manager on how unsupportive he was whenever I raised concerns. How he ignored my queries. Both ABC manager & 123 manager told me to be prepared for night shifts which wasn't at all discussed during my hiring initially nor was it mentioned in my offer letter. They did not mention anything about working at night. My ABC manager was also against about providing me night shift allowance which I had to fight for 2.5 months. I agreed to work for night shift provided that they provide me night shift allowance/cab/30% hike since I wasn't informed on these timings during my interview sessions. After a lot of fight, they agreed to provide me night shift allowance + cab facility, but they did not agree to provide me 30% hike. They turned the tables around & said that they will decide on the hike after me completing 6 months of employment.
Another point here is, my initial logout timings were 8:30pm and I was not provided a transport for those timings. It was really difficult to ride my bike for 30kms to & fro specially in rainy season where there was heavy traffic & I reached home about 2-2.5 hours late everyday.

So here, I need help as to what I can do? Because I really really dont want to resign as I love my job profile.

Thanks

Is contract agreement is required

Respected Sir/Madam,

Undersigned found that in Works and Service Contracts a contract agreement is signed on Non Judicial Stamp Paper of Rs. 100.

As per contract law intimating the offerer about acceptance of his/her offer is sufficient to form a contract then why there is prevalent practice of signing contract agreement on Non Judicial Stamp Paper.

Further, the value of the non judicial stamp paper is not linked with the value of the contract. Do The India stamp act or any other act calls for such requirement ?

Further, it is also said that the Indian stamp paper should be of the state where work/service is to be executed, so in cases where work/service is going on in multiple states, the agreement will be required to be signed on non-judicial stamp paper of all the states.

Please help clarifying the queries.

Thanking you in advance.

Company harrasment

Dear Sir/ Madam,
On 24th July, I joined a startup company in kolkata. Initially they promised good career benefits which impressed me to work well in the company. However the company made me sit ideal for around 1.5 months without any work and lots of meetings without any agenda. Later they had a project which I worked as a process lead. The CEO of the company asked my team to sell call center voip minutes by calling small bpo all over India. They asked my team to call customers from our own mobile phone to which I refused that we wont call anyone from our personal number. They didnt even had the ISP and OSP license which is required to sell call center Voip minutes. I was getting mentally harrassed by the company CEO and Chairman to start calling from our own phones. On the other side my teammates were scared as it was turning out to be a wrong process. I decided to come out of it and resigned on 6th Oct 2017 but the CEO after discussion didnt accept the resignation. Unfortunately I sent the mail to ceo abd hr team from my official mail id and didnt keep a copy of the letter with me. I tried to give a week more to the company to see what happens but things were getting worse. I left the company without informing anyone as it was hampering my mental peace and my family aswell. After a week I met the Chairman at his office and informed him that I dont want to continue and left. After 2.5 months the company has sent me a letter stating that I have 5000 data of the company in my custody and return it else they would take legal action. They have sent similar email to all the senior employess whi have left the organisation even though employees left with proper notice and clearance certificate. The letter that the hr team has sent me doesnt hold any signature or company stamp neither the ceo or chaurman is marked. Please advise what action do I take and what reply do I give to them.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully
Subhankar Saha

Dishonoured cheque - bank not mentioning valid reason

I presented a cheque to my bank which has been dishonoured and the reason mentioned in the memo is eKYC await - present again.
As far as I have read, this reason is not mentioned in the list issued by R.B.I for returning the cheque and bank should have mentioned a more valid reason to return the cheque.
Also the sender of the cheque has corporate account so I dont think bank can freeze his account and return the cheque just because KYC is not updated.

Also Is it a valid reason (eKYC await - present again) to initiate legal proceedings against the person who gave me this cheque?
