So I just gave interview for a job and…they shortlisted me but they said there is a security bond thing. I have to give them check of two months salary and after one year of completion of job they will give me back my salary. Is this even legal?

I can link case laws here but that may not help you much since you may not be aware how to interpret them if your HR says something else.

Short answer is bonds are not enforceable. What you need to understand is you will be better served to look for companies which doesn’t put such restrictions.

Good rule of thumb, if you feel uncomfortable do not pursue such offers.
