Hi, One of our employees has put down his papers just 2 days after receiving the appraisal. The appraisal is w.e.f sept'2020. He put down his papers on 22nd Sept'20 and signed acceptance on the appraisal letter on 18th Sept'2020. Now he's asking for the increased salary as he has accepted the offer. Please suggest any legal repercussions here.

Dear Spatyal,
When one reads the post, on the surface it can be concluded that the performance appraisal and separation from the company are two independent things. Former is for measuring employee performance in the past performance cycle whereas the latter is his basic choice on how long one will serve in a particular company. If the employee finds his interests lie outside the company then where is the problem? As long as the employee serves the notice period as per the notice period, everything is fine.
Your question is on legal repercussions of separation after the performance appraisal. However, be it noted that the performance appraisal and resignation are the internal matters of the company. Labour laws do not deal with the internal matters of any company.
Nevertheless, if one reads between the lines of your post, one feels a grouse that you might have on the resignation of the employee after the salary hike. Is this the real reason for your post?
Thanks,

I fully endorse the observations of Mr.Dinesh. Performance appraisal is an objective and periodical exercise of the employer to assess the past performance of the employee to grant him pay hike. On the other hand resignation is the subjective decision of the employee to quit for his betterment. What is important is whether his resignation fulfills the predetermined exit clause of the contract of employment. When to resign subject to the exit clause is an exclusive choice of the employee concerned. If he resigns soon after getting a hike, it is not going to adversely affect the present employer but can enable him have an edge in the salary negotiation of his future job, if it is one among the reasons for his resignation. There is no questions of legality or ethics involved in such an action.
If the present employer prefers his retention, he can offer him a higher position with higher compensation package.
In fact, it will create legal and ethical issues, only if the employer refuses to effect the pay hike agreed in the appraisal in view of the resignation following appraisal.

Mr. Satypal,
Whether there are repercussions or not depends on the terms and conditions of appraisal and/or policies of the employer. If you want specific reply, you can share your policies/terms of appraisal. The language used therein will have to be interpreted.

There won't be any legal repercussions on company management, in awarding an increment to your employee. Even if he put his papers, performance appraisal is based on his past service of one year or six months (as per your Co.'s policy), and hence he is entitled to receive the incremental hike in his salary.
