Hello People,
I need an urgent advise for my brother. He joined company ABC in US with a service agreement of around 10,000 US $ in case of termination before 1 year. Now, he got an offer with other company XYZ and he was trying to get joining bonus of 5000 US $ to compensate the loss as even he didnt have the money to pay. Instead of paying the bonus, the company XYZ is saying to breach the contract and join the company without bonus and once he is able to save money in 15 days (which doesn't look feasable to me), he can pay them out after 15 days.
The contract was made in India (Delhi) and he is working in US. Now, in case he terminates the bond, what exactly will happen? Will an FIR will be logged against him or a case would be registered as Company XYZ's lawyer says that it will take minimum 15 days to register a case against him. Would there be chance that he would be called back before 15 days?
We really need to convince the lawyer of XYZ , that we dont want to enter into any such case but we dont have any point where we could convince him and we dont want to leave offer also.
Please reply urgently if anyone can help.
Regards,
Neha
