Dear Fellow Members,
I am currently an employee of Company X and have received an offer from Company Y. The offer letter states that it is subject to clearance of training at the time of induction. However, Company Y also expects me to provide a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from my previous employer, if applicable, to confirm my employment status. In this situation, can I abscond from my current company and join Company Y, providing the NOC after successfully completing the training? Would this constitute a case of dual employment?
Thank you,
Ms. Kumar

Yes, without obtaining a No Objection Certificate (NOC), relieving letter, and service certificate from the present employer, you are not free from the employment. The present employer can treat your absence from work as abstaining and may initiate disciplinary action. Even after you submit your resignation, they may refuse to accept it and may require you to complete the notice period. A prospective employer may request a relieving letter from your current employer at the time of joining, so it's advisable to complete these formalities before starting the new job.
Regarding holding two jobs simultaneously, until you fulfill the necessary formalities with your current employer, it will be considered as double employment. If your current employer is aware of your situation, they may inform relevant parties and could even publish your details in newspapers, which could have a negative impact on your career.

You are working with X company, and now looking for company Y, why?? is my first question for you.
Second, do not think over absconding, this is not an ethical step and by doing this you’ll not be able to provide any previous employment /experience/relieving certificate to any future employer bcz the current employer is not gonna give you exit clearance as you are expecting NOC or company Y is asking for you to obtain. Also you just have started your career life, you shud not do anything like ABSCONDING
This is not a dual employment but an absconding case which can bother you in future in manyways..
I would suggest you, if you have recently joined this present company and looking for company Y just bcz of good option with salary, need to complete your training first bcz you can get many more good options in future.
