RPosting this on behalf of a close friend who’s going through something really tough and unfair.
He’s working at a company in Pune, and today out of the blue, he was asked to resign. The reason is an alleged complaint made by a female colleague. But my friend has absolutely no idea what the allegation is about. He wasn’t informed beforehand, wasn’t given any formal notice, and no investigation seems to have taken place.
When he asked for clarification, the company refused to share any concrete details. They just told him to resign today, or else they’ll terminate him.
This feels extremely wrong and shady. No proper process, no explanation, just this “resign or be terminated” ultimatum.
He is based in Pune, and the company is also located there.
He is never had any complaints or issues at work before. He’s completely shaken right now and unsure what to do.

UNo the company can’t just fire him without a proper POSH case being filed.
Once POSH is filed both the sides are required to attend hearings in which both sides will have to present their case.
There is proper documentation and trail involved in these cases.
Ask your friend to request for a formal email from the company detailing the complaint, and the investigation carried out.

BCompanies use such tactics ( blame may be of any nature) to skip the costings of terminating. if your friend is financially strong enough- resign and search for a new job. if the money which he will receive as notice period salary is very important for him, face the termination. Then he will have to struggle in finding a new job due to troubles by previous company.
All Company laws in India are taken from the British Colonial era where all the laws were prepared to benefit the British Companies . No new rules added in favour of Poor employees.
