The stand that an employee serving notice period is not on the rolls is patently wrong and grossly unjust. The employee is on the rolls of the company till he is relieved and that would extend to the midnight of that day.
The rules and regulations of the company would apply to the employee till he is finally relieved from service. As far as the organisation is concerned the revised VDA applies from July 1 and the old VDA ceases to apply on 30th June. There cannot be a selective extension of benefits to those continuing in the organisation and deny it to the employees on notice period. This is discriminatory and patently illegal.
I know that there is a widespread practice of denying many due benefits to resigned employees but it is incorrect and illegalk.

This is actually a software error or deficiency.
Logically, the HR Manager should speak to accounts and get the amount paid.
Since the employee has worked for a long time, it would be better if he could just speak to a senior manager and try to get it resolved. Trying to take a legal route for a half month variable pay is a bad idea, specially since the new company will come to the old one for a BGV. So it is always good to work it out on a good note.
