Hi there! I'm new to this forum and not sure if this is the correct place to post this question or not. Mods may move this thread to the correct section if necessary.
Having said all that, my question is: if I resign from a company with immediate effect without serving my notice period (90 days in my case) so that I may join another company in the same month, what are the options I have at my disposal? Furthermore, in my resignation letter, should I mention that I'm willing to pay the next 3 months' basic with respect to full and final settlement? Can the company reject this by any chance?
Thanks and regards.

You can go on Sick Leave for 90 days, which you are not supposed to do. In case of need, you can do this. Inform the new company about the notice period. Tell them you can get the relieving letter after the stipulated time.

Well, I have informed my new company about the requirement, and they have a time constraint. They want me to join by the 20th of this month. They are even willing to buy out my notice period from my existing company. What I need to know is how to proceed with this matter regarding my current employer. I have discussed all of this with my boss, and after some convincing, he is now on board. However, I am unsure about how to approach the HR department. Should I mention a full and final settlement in my resignation letter? Or should I state that I need to resign with immediate effect, and does that imply that I will need to pay my next 3 months' basic salary?

Reach a midway as it's not fair to leave your previous organization in the lurch. Paying them 3 months' salary is not going to lead to a smooth handover—forget legality—do what is right and serve the notice period.
Regarding the new organization, they should remember that if you can do it to your previous organization, you will do it to them sometime later. Maybe the HR Manager of the new organization should join this forum (this is on a lighter note) 🌀.
All the best. May you make the right decision.

Ok, point taken, but in my case, it's an urgent requirement for the new organization where they need me by the 20th as they'll start a new project and hence they are willing to buy out the previous company's notice period even.
As far as my old company is concerned, I have spoken about this to my immediate supervisor, and he shares a very good relationship with me. Hence, after a little convincing, he has decided to release me. But since I'm from ops, I just wanted to get the HR perspective of the game.
I certainly do not want to leave this organization on a bitter note as I have served them for long and have always enjoyed a very nice track record and a very nice relationship with all.

Hi All,
I am in complete agreement with Amul. We are generally aware of the kind of notice that we are expected to serve if we are to leave the organization and join somewhere else. To some extent, it is our responsibility to ensure that there is a smooth transition between us and the person taking over. It is important that the organization remembers you, even when you are not there, for your good deeds.

Hi, Whatever the reason it is not fair to quit at short notice. You have a responsibility to H/O fully before leaving. Shrinivas

Hi,
If the new company is really interested in you, you can speak to them about your difficulties. At times, the new company will be willing to pay the notice pay cost of your old company. This means you need to pay the notice period pay in your old company, and your new company will reimburse the amount to you. It depends on the company and your value to the new company.
Try it out this way.

See, it is basically a self-decision to stay or leave a particular organization. As far as notice periods are concerned, according to me, they are there so that when a person decides to leave, the transition is smooth, and the work of the organization does not hamper. It should also not affect the work culture therein.
So, if you can convince your present boss to provide you with a reliever to whom you can smoothly handover the tasks and works which you were handling, and determine how much time period is required for this, then it will be more than sufficient. After all, he is the person who has to clear your "dues" from the department. Accordingly, you have to convince the HR Manager of the new organization that this is the minimum time you will be requiring. As far as the HR department is concerned, they will be following the policy guidelines. Also, in your case, you are lucky that the new organization is paying you the notice period amount.

I am posting after a long period of time... First of all, I would like to thank all who have helped me earlier. Now coming to the point...
I resigned on the 17th of August 2007 from my previous employer and joined another company on the 20th of August 2007 (where I am currently working). I had served a 6-day notice period out of the 90 days which I was supposed to serve. My project manager and operations manager had accepted the resignation. The HR department had also approved this and sent my papers to the finance department for processing of the Full & Final Settlement. Evidently, I was to pay my ex-employer; hence, I kept on sending them emails to quickly process my F&FS documentations and tell me approximately how much money I will have to pay them. Every time they would give me some excuse and ask for more time.
Meanwhile, I had an oral agreement with the HR of the company that I have joined that they will reimburse the amount towards the F&FS. However, they wanted the papers within 1 to 2 months. Now that it has already been over 4 months... I realize I am in a soup. Please help me and advise me on the legal steps that I may take. I have all the emails with me. Furthermore, they have my PF money with them.
