Greetings,
The case you presented is very human. Please check the document , your spouse signed. Mostly the amount is based on a fixed duration, within the lock-in period. This entails that 2 lacs were to be paid with a fixed period , beyond which its only about the remaining amount. If this is so, the amount, what she might need to pay, is far lower.
Ask her to begin discussions with her reporting head, requesting for a sabbatical. If she can take a break for an year and then join the firm back , it can save her, every hassle. If it requires her, she can enroll for any education within this period, to support her case.
Try and nudge to save the job, at the most request for a release on an humanitarian ground. Ideally, the bond is designed to keep the talent productive on the role. However, if the talent is absent or cannot deliver , it doesn't serve any good. In your case, staying in different countries, for prolong duration only to attend to the duties, isn't too human. Avoid absconding at every cost.
I am certain you will find the best measure. I wish her all the very best!

Hello Chetan,
Looks like you 'seem to have made up your mind' to 'abscond'.
Like (Cite Contribution) mentioned, DESIST the urge to abscond. If you are trying to solve this problem thru this approach, pl note that you are about to create another--FAR LARGER--problem. Since she is also in the IT industry, she is bound to have tough time during her BC when that time comes--especially since this will be her 'most-recent' job when she begins to look for another job later on--and I am discounting the option of faking the resume in order NOT to show this exp at all for more reasons than one.
Though it's a tough call for you, the only option your wife seems to be having is to pay-up & get relieved the proper way--AND learn the lesson.
All the Best.

Dear Chetan,
I second Sateesh . Please put request on the humanitarian ground, in writing, offering every options to the company for release. Mention every process towards the release, in spite of how they treat . Keeping communications courteous and to the point, will not allow them to mess too much. We are certain she will find the best way out !

Hello,
Shun the thought of breaking the bond in any form!
Be amenable to the terms you have signed voluntarily and kindly find no excuses to behave differently!
For a little selfish interest, it is unwise to sacrifice one's honour!
Having said that, please also consider consequences of being blacklisted. The future could be affected and it will take a long time to reconstruct future!
Please do NOT succumb to the temptation of "absconding"! Whether there are "consequences" or NOT, it is WRONG to do so and for that reason alone, one should not entertainment even the thought!
Ultimately it will be your decision!
