Unserved Notice Period - What could be the Legal action???

it all depends upon the terms of appointment.

once you had sent a resignation mail and the companies reply for the notice pay can be treated as an acceptance from their end.

it may seem unfair,however,you are bound to pay them notice pay if mentioned in your appointment letter.

try to settle the issue with HR amicably. without their cooperation,legally fighting and joining back their for notice period work wont be a safed thing.
 

salary you have to pay for a month is in lieu for the notice period. Why not you explained your emergency visit to Bangalore? what if you disclose?

Don't worry till you get the notice. HR people aren't going to type the notice and send it to you, usually the matter is forgotten because of the legal expense and hassle. Next time, simply say that you had to leave because of an emergency and let them wait till the situation is clear. You're lucky to get your salary on 30th before leaving.

If you are really interested to join then be cordial and settle the matter amicably asking for some lenience explaining the reasons for your sending the first mail stating therein that you could not continue in the company. The position you had held should have some responsibilities, so it was unfair on your part to just all of a sudden leave and then again ask for pardon when asked to pay notice pay. I don't think what Uma has stated is correct. Company have some well defined principles and standards which they have to maintain at all costs. So to avoid any such incidents like yours, the company will go in for all types of legal actions. Further you will find it difficult to get any employment is higher cadres if you maintain such type of behaviour. So go in for compromise. It is the best available solution. 

No companies will accept this kind unfair advantage.

As per your appointmetment lettet you should have served one month noitce if you want leave the company otherwise you should pau one month lieu salary.

It is prima facie shows that you have given your regisgation after creadting your salary in your account. This is big mistake on your part as weel as unfair practice adopted you u and cannot be excusebale.

When you send your mother to produce all ur belegongs, can't you request that you will work or give one month salary to the company.

Now at this stage the company can send strong legal notice to receovery the salalry as per appointmement letter.
Then you will have to face undesribel legal proceedings from your company.

please aviod and settle it amicablly.

Ref. notice pay claim from your company.  If you joined only 3/4 months back your appointment shouldbe on probation.  However, if you were taken with the condition of one month's notice, the Company is justified in asking for notice pay.  You have not explained as to what was the situation that prvented you from continuing in service and you had to leave the city at midnight.

In the normal course, if your case is genuine, no company will proceed against you. It is also not

worthwhile to fight it out in the court for one month's pay because the legal cost would be prohibitive and time consuming.    So hope for the best.
