VLawyer on a sabbatical here.
A Madras High Court ruling allows gratuity for employees who have completed 4 years and 240 days of service.
Do not voluntarily put down your papers. Document all the emails where your work has been appreciated.
Show up at work on time and give them no excuses to terminate you.
Gratuity is a matter of right. Fight for it. Download your company policies and a save a copy.
You may need to send them a legal notice if they deny you the same.
VIndian contract act recognises verbal contracts also.What is the monthly rent?
Landlord is well within his right to hold back the SD since you did breach the agreement.
Also, for 7.5K it makes no sense to fight it out.
Just negotiate your salary in a way this amount gets covered.
Most companies offer relocation benefits like pay for your stuff to be transferred, deposit for your house, one month salary as relocation allowance.
This is on top of the CTC offered. You could also ask for a singing bonus.
Remember the golden rule of corporate life,
If you never ask the answer is always a no.
VDuring our colg fest days some girls found their wallet missing.When we looked at the CCTV footage we found another girl stealing the same and dumping the wallet in the girls wash room.
Armed with her photo that we took through the CCTV camera we submitted the same to the colg security who caught her in campus within a week.
We went to the police station and the girl (theif) said she spulrged the money already.
Police asked my friend Kya aapko ek ladki ki zindagi karab karni hain?
Everyone can guess what happened next.
The money and valuable lost was in the range of 5-25k
File an FIR only if you are ok with:
1. Multiple visits to police station/court.
2. Taunts from police for keeping valuables put in the open.
3. Backlash from people for trying to save some money and booking her outside of the delivery platform.In many cases, these thiefs are hand in glove with the local law enforcement. So nothing really happens to them.
If you have patience or may be some contacts then go ahead and lodge an FIR and also report the person on the booking platform.
Do inform your society and Ban her entry.
VAgreements can be digitally executed. Stamp paper could be bought digitally.And you can always sign it on the day of your event.
This is also a good way to filter out bad customers.
VLet this be a lesson to improve your internal process.Reach out to a lawyer and get an agreement template from them. Including a format for payment of fees.
Use it for every contract/project you get.
Have milestone payments set as per your experience
10% on onboarding
20% before pre wedding
Etc etcPayment terms and mode should be specified. Including interest on delayed payment.
Let certain amount be payable on you finally delivering.
Execute the agreement on a 100 rs stamp paper.
Take your business seriously for others to take you seriously.
If you go the legal route from day 1 you wouldn’t encounter such problems.
Most of my friends in media never executed contracts until they got fucked over. Which will happen sooner or later.
Every business owner should have some legal budget and use it wisely. It really doesn’t cost that much.
VYou and your friend need to relax.You can simply ignore this letter for now. No compulsion to respond. You could if you want to end the matter.
There isn’t any merit in his case.
If I were you i would wait for now and if there is another notice I would respond to it through a lawyer.
VI am not clear about the monetary toll bit. Can you explain this?Also, if she is from a weak economic background and has paid for most things then where is the exploitation..
VTo prove defamation, a plaintiff must show:The statement was false: The statement must be false, as truth is a defense to defamation.
The statement was published: The statement must be communicated to a third person.
The defendant is at fault: The defendant must be at fault for the defamation, at least to the level of negligence.
The statement was unprivileged: The statement must not be privileged, meaning it is not protected by law.
The statement caused damages: The statement must have caused some harm to the reputation of the person or entity being defamed.
If what your friend is saying is true and if she is innocent with all documentary proof. She need not worry.
If she gets a summons from court she will need to hire a counsel but I don’t expect things to go that far.
VIdeally, yea.But retrospective effect could be given to any document. Meaning it could have a backdated effect.
Again. Not legally required. Just to give comfort.
You merely need to have a document to show that the asset were delivered to the registered office address.
Could be hand delivered or through courier or by any other means you deem fit.
VLawyer here.Just for the advice you have received.
Ideas have no protection under law. Only copyright/patents do.
Also, if signing a NDS gives him comfort and if you are not going to use any information they have shared. You could sign the NDA.
Not a legal compulsion but just an act to reassure him that you are ok to be bound by confidentiality.
In my 10 years of practice I have not seen a single suit being filled for breach of confidentiality and I have worked in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry.
Also, courier the company assets through registered courier so you get an acknowledgement of delivery.
VLife is not about whether laws allows you or not. You are going to ruin many life’s with this approach including yours.Marital rape is not a recognized crime in India. Slavery was legally allowed at some point.
Either have the courage to stand up to your parents or suck up and live a arranged marriage life that most of our parents have done.
VBuy properties and park it in a trust. With you being the beneficiary of the trust.Avoid living in your ancestral house post marriage.
Ensure that you have enough receipts of all expenses you bear. Especially the big ticket items like jewellery and stuff.
VAlso, congratulations.If the amount is not to significant then don’t contest it.
Your mental health right now is alot more imp than a few months salary.
