Adoni Sir,
Please note that just below clause is mentioned in my offer letter where I signed and reverted back to them:
"The Company reserves the right to terminate your employment summarily, without any notice period or basic salary in lieu thereof, if it has reasonable grounds to believe that you are guilty of gross misconduct or have committed an act involving moral turpitude or gross negligence."
Nothing else is mentioned regarding my notice period or probation period in my offer letter. What can I do? Please suggest and help me. They can't force me to serve the notice period. If I resign with a 1-day notice period, and they will issue a release letter in the next action. Please help.

Dear Mr. Sudip,
The first clause represents the termination of employment from one side, i.e., from the company's side, but it should have normally been from either side. However, the clause is silent on whether this occurred during the probationary period or after confirmation. The remaining clauses represent misconduct, which, in this case, does not matter. You can take the opportunity to submit your resignation letter in writing, give one day's notice, and request for relieving. In fact, they should not force you and must follow the procedure for issuing relieving orders. Please adhere to the same guidelines as mentioned earlier.
Wishing you all the best.
