I work in a software firm. I have joined as a fresher and am presently in my ninth month at the company. Now I want to leave this company, and I have already resigned. However, the company is not accepting my resignation and does not want to relieve me. I do not have any service agreement with this company. What should I do next to ensure that I am on the safe side for my next job?

Depends on whether the organization is giving you enough work, opportunity to groom yourself into a software professional, and also paying your salary regularly. If your answer to these questions is "yes," then you are bound to continue with the current company until at least the probation period is over.
Every organization spends resources (money, executive time, training, etc.) to groom professionals, especially when introducing new employees to the business. You need to work with them on the "hows" and "whys" of your current employment. They are obligated to gain return on investment from your employment with them.

Hello meher421,
Like syedhussain mentioned, first of all, please mention the reasons [from the Company's perspective] why your resignation isn't being accepted. In a way, Praveen Kumar Kambhampati is very right from the Company's point of view.
Now looking at this situation from YOUR career perspective, please understand that any/every company likes to hire those who work/stay in the company for a reasonable length of time. Unless you can justify with very strong and valid reasons your leaving the very first company within a year of joining, you will be putting yourself at risk in terms of credibility.
You haven't mentioned whether you resigned AFTER getting another job or want to hunt for another job after resigning—I have seen quite a few IT people quitting even without anything new in hand.
If you can give the picture in detail, you can get the best possible suggestion from this Forum.
