Accordingly, the person paid the F&F amount to Company B and got his clearance and other reliving documents from Company B.
Now, after joining, company A, when the person submitted a claim for his reimbursement of 60 days notice payment which he paid to company B, company A HR asking the person to adjust his Leave Encashment with his notice pay and instead to reimburse agreed 60 days period of notice, they are forcing the person to accept the reimbursement of the net of days of short notice (60 days Less leaves earn by that person in company B during his tenure in company B)
Is this act of company A right? If yes, what are the grounds for the same?
If not, what the person needs to do for his rights?
Requesting every senior and professional here to kindly assist with a well-accepted argument supported by law and logic.
Will be grateful for case study support on the above too (If available)

The employee wants to join a new company that is only willing to wait for 30 days.
So he needs to pay the previous company for what he can't fulfil. If he didn't have the buyout bonus, he would definitely adjust everything he could and then leave paying the minimum.
So why do you think the company will let him earn more or pay more than what he himself has paid.
If your wording is right, then see what you wrote, "Company A assured the person to reimburse 60 days notice pay salary whatever the person needs to pay to company B in lieu of such period of notice."
Whatever the person needs to pay.
He needed to pay less, so he will get less.
As for 'recovery of his right', depends now on the agreement he signed and how many days he wants to be there before they terminate him
