Mr. Davessar has given valuable advice. Kindly follow it.
It shall be appropriate to show all documents and records e.g. Bond, appointment letter, standing orders, service rule book, target Vs performance sheet/record of individual-team-branch-region-zone-pan India, and if you have record of industry performance like ORG data, stinkers, emails, appraisals, etc to a competent and experienced labor consultant/service lawyer and give inputs in person and let your lawyer evaluate the merits and suggest appropriate forum. The bond may be in violation of standing orders.
Has the company provided training adding to skill and qualification? Has any certificate of training been issued? Has the company provided any break up of expenses/itemized detail of expenses incurred by it? What is the ground of bond?
The decision is to be taken by courts of law and in case training has been imparted company has to justify the expense and employee can ask for itemized detail and supporting bills in original. Company shall press for liquidated damages.
Has the company confirmed your services in writing? If no, you should be considered a probationer.
Is the line management/HR exercising undue pressure and has it been issuing stinkers, SMS, emails, show cause notice, etc.
Has the company mentioned in bond that you shall not be eligible for any incremental increase in wages during the bond period?
If you are sick, has your specialist doctor diagnosed you with stress, depression, induced medical disorders?
You may try to reason and peruse with your line management and HR to grant waiver and relieve you and if they do not accede to your request you should approach good offices of appointing authority, MD, Company Secretary and seek relief, and minute the representations in writing under acknowledgment.
