Dear Sir,
I worked with a Fashion designer house for one year and resigned as per the Company Policy with one month notice period and served the notice period successfully.
In last week of my notice period, I was verbally offered by management to join another department, no official document provided for the same. I accepted that offer verbally, I worked for 10 days and found that Position uncomfortable. At the same time my stomach was badly infected and I took leaves and informed on time. I felt so much weakness and decided not to continue with the new responsibilities assigned verbally.
I informed them via email that I don't wish to continue with new responsibilities, hence I have already served notice period for my previous position, kindly provide my Relieving documents and do full and final settlement.
They denied doing so, and asked me to serve one more month notice period, which is not justified. They didn't pay my Salary for that period. That Position was offered verbally to me, I was on trial, I didn't find myself comfortable for that Position, so I denied.
Kindly guide, what could be done in this circumstance. Your kind reply is awaited.
Thanks and Regards

Since notice period has been served, without counting new assignment where you could not adjust and left, your contractual obligation is over, hence issue legal notice through a local lawyer for full and final settlement and issuance of relieving letter.
