You have to provide a valid reason for terminating an employee or requesting their resignation, such as poor economic conditions, poor performance, conflict, or infringement of company rules and regulations. Before sending the mail, discuss this matter with the concerned employee. They should receive a valid reason from you.
Termination Notice Template
Use the text below and modify it as per your requirement:
Dear XYZ,
We regret to inform you that your services are no longer required due to changes in the company’s economic performance. Please consider the above-mentioned date as the start of the notice period as per labor law. Furthermore, you will be relieved of all functional responsibilities of contract(s) under your supervision effective from the date of this letter.

Handling Employee Resignation
Please explore the possibilities. If he is a good guy and accepts the management decision, it is better not to write a letter. Brief him on the reasons behind it and convince him to submit the resignation letter.
If he is a negative guy and there is a possibility of confrontation, it is better not to issue any letter. This could become a tool for him to proceed further. Hence, it is better to go in a structured way by building the file, organizing an inquiry, and discontinuing the process.

As Mr. Kamesh mentioned, it is not advisable to issue a letter in such situations, as it may lead to further complications with labor officials. It is important to communicate with employees in person, helping them understand the circumstances and encouraging them to resign voluntarily with dignity. Employees who depart from the organization amicably serve as the best representatives of the company.

I agree with the views and draft suggested by MANIFARO. However, you mentioned wanting another simple format. I concur with MANIFARO that even in a simple letter, it is essential to provide some valid reasons. Therefore, I propose the following format:
Proposed Simple Format
Dear Mr./Ms. [Name],
It is to inform you that, due to restructuring policies, your services will not be required by us. Consequently, you will be relieved on [Date].

Simply, you cannot tell your employee to leave the job and search for a new job in writing. There must be some valid reasons. If the employee is under a probationary period, you can straightaway terminate their services by stating the reasons their performance is found not satisfactory, by giving a notice period as stipulated in the appointment order. If it is a confirmed employee, you have to terminate their services only as per law. You have to prove the charges and, based on the findings of the inquiry officer, you can legally terminate so that even if they approach the Labor officer, as an employer, you must be within the purview of the law.
