Hi,
I'm an employee of an Organization and I have resigned from my company here the company says that they have a policy where in they don't accept the resignation from email and they need the resignation in hand written, although the company says that we won't give you any accpectance of resignation and also will not issue any releving letter for next 45-60 Business days, since they have to take clearance from other departments as well as per the verbal conversation held with on my co-worker in the organization and with the x-employees experience which they have shared.
Where as In the appointment letter issued by the Organization nothing is mentioned as such that they won't accept resignation from email or else they need resignation in hand written format.
Now I have sent my resignation to the company through email and they have also replied to me on the same email stating as follow:
"Kunal
We have received your resignation letter dated April 10, 2012 through your personal Id. We would like to bring to your notice that as per the Company guidelines, resignation through personal e-mail Id is not acceptable.
We request you to either personally visit the company premises to resign from your official email Id or send a signed hard copy of your resignation via courier.
Failing a response from your end within next 48 hours , it would be considered as willfulabandonment of servicesand no longer interested in continuing with the organization; and your name will be struck off from the muster rolls of the organization and the employment with the organization would stand terminated.
Regards"
Now in this case what? Will this be considered as delivered or not in the court?
Also if incase they won't give me the accpectance of my resignation letter I won't be able to join anyother company since the new company need the accpectance letter or the releving letter issue by the previous employer.
When had a word with the HR as well in the company they are also not ready to say anything on the same a part from Signed Hard Copy of my Resignation Letter. However In response too thier I have arranged and sent my Signed Hard Copy of my Resignation through Regd. AD, but afer that as well they have stated the same over the telephonic conversation that they won't give the accpectance of my resignation since I have not served my Notice period and have shown my intent to Pay Salary in Liue of Notice Period as mentioned in Clause no# 3.3 of my appointment letter. Please suggest what to do in that case.
