Dear Friend
Generally no organization prefers to issue appointment letters with back date. Why because, it may leads to some complications in case of accident/ death of an employee. It may also become difficult to terminate or discharge the employee whom you have taken into service without giving him an appointment letter with prospective date. However, the employee can be taken on the basis of offer letter with a provision to issue him appointment letter on his joining into duty as per the terms and conditions of such offer letter.
In such a case, the appointment letter could be issued by mentioning the date his joining into the service of the an organization but not prior to the said date
