Hello all,
I left my job on 2nd day itself because of some critical issues and sent resignation mail to HR same day. I was in probation period and furnished all joining processes in 2 days. I didn\'t take a single penny from company, now they are asking 70,000 for recovery of notice period otherwise they will take legal action against me. As 70,000 is big amount which I can\'t pay as of now, please suggest me what to do.
Please give me some light on below point also.
1. Will it affect my career(may be after some time I will look forward for new opportunity).
2. What if they will take any legal action against me.
Kindly help me on this.
Thanks

Did you sign any bond or agreement with the company?
Having served 2 days only ,they cannot ask for such kind of amount.
On what ground are they asking for Rs70000??
If they take legal action,they are likely to loose the battle.
You need to furnish more details for full answer.
Did they start some training in these 2 days ?
You need not mention this job in your CV anyway.

No I didn't sign any bond, but on 2nd day I have signed on so many papers, in one of those papers it was mentioned like 2 month notice period you have to serve or pay for 2 month notice period or something like that they have mentioned which I am not able to remember as it happened 2 months back.

No original doc’s I submit over there, because on the day of joining I didn't have original revealing and experience letter.

Dear Monalitiwari,
A company asking for Rs. 70K on leaving the employment next day of joining should be Awarded.
There is a need that such company should introspect itself and find out why employee is leaving on very next day of joining and take corrective steps if there is some wrong with it.
I don't feel that the company can initiate any legal proceedings against you even you have signed so many papers on 2nd day of your employment.
My advise to you, you should send a letter to company by register AD mentioning the prevailing circumstances of taking the decision to quit the employment on very second day of joining. You should also write that the company has taken signatures of you on many papers and no copy is given of such papers to you. You should also write that you are not liable to pay any compensation / damages / short notice pay etc. to the company under above circumstances which compelled you or forced you to quit the employment on very second day of joining.
Company can not put a clause of 2 months' notice to probationers.
Now, coming back to your queries, my say to the point is as under:
Two days employment is just like no employment. It can not be counted. Only thing, the gap after your earlier employment may trouble you. ( You did not mention whether you were in employment before joining this company.)
Another problem you may face in negotiating salary with your prospective employer when you are not in employment.
The company can not take any legal action against you. If at all, the company initiate any action, you need to approach an advocate and protect your self from such action. There is no chance to company to win the battle.

Hi Monali,
If company has 'arranged' for any trainings, & has already paid for it; then they can ask for the refund from you.
Also, they can ask for any relocation expenses, charges incurred during interview process (travel & stay allowances), etc.
This is generally asked in form of notice period pay.
Company can initiate legal action... For a company it might be OK to spend the money on such actions, but personally it becomes difficult to spend time & money on such things for individuals...
Try to call the company HR and understand & settle the matter on personal level,as far as possible.
As Mr. Koregaonkar said, do not fall for the threats of legal action; but still be positive to negotiate & settle the matter outside court.
I agree with Mr Koregaonkar's view that company should introspect itself to see the need in change in some policy handling methods.
But the post gives me feeling that company had no fault in your resigning from there on the second day. it seems that you resigned due to your personal reasons, & did not complete the relieving process with clarity. Also, your earlier post indicate that you did not perform your joining process very attentively either.
You might want to work on these aspects for your next job.
Best Regards,
Amod Bobade.

Absolutely essential to read the fine print of all documents one signs.
The hell is is the small print.
However the querist need not worry too much as she left on second day.
But due care is necessary in leaving,joining companies.Pay special attention to all formalities.
