Now with recent IT layoffs, what all laws are applicable for IT professionals. My friend is laid off with reason as 'non performance' and company terminated
1) in 5 minutes phone call without following any performance improvement plan process,Â
2) paid just 2 months basic salary, though appointment letter says 2 months notice period for either side.
3) revoked all employee benefits in 5 mins phone call and
4) issued service certificate having reason as "termination" which is creating a blocker in next jobs
What all can be done against such employer, which court in Pune this case can be filed and what all can be asked as relief.

Termination of service without due process of law is invalid and illegal.
Let your friend may initiate necessary legal proceeding through a local prudent lawyer.
