Hi Gaurav Thakur,
I have resigned on 15-04-2016 with a one-month notice period until 15-05-2016. Could you please let me know how many days the company should take to process and accept my resignation?

It is not necessary that the company should give an acceptance letter within a certain period. Depending upon the company policy in this regard, the days may change. In some cases, the acceptance will be immediate, and in some other cases, it will get delayed due to top management refusing to accord permission to the reporting officer to go ahead with the resignation or due to some other reasons. However, since undue delay in accepting or rejecting the resignation from management's side will cause damage to the employee, a proper HR person should always be vigilant and should insist that the respective manager communicate the decision at the earliest. Therefore, you may ask the HR to get your date of relieving confirmed.

Yes, I agree with the above reply from site members. It totally depends on the situation of the company. If any employee has more responsibility, then sometimes the company may extend the acceptance letter until a new person takes over the charge.

I fully endorse the comments of learned Member Shri T.K. Madhu. As rightly pointed out by him, the company may accept and relieve the person on the same day and settle the issue, whereas it can or will extend the time depending upon how important the post/work is. Most companies appoint a person after spending a lot of time, money, and energy, unlike hiring a low-skilled worker.
If the post/work is important, then the company needs to find a substitute. But the period cannot be indefinite to avoid spoiling the career growth of another person. Every HR Head should plan in the best interest of the company as well as the employee, as seniors will also seek better prospects. The HR Head should establish a uniform policy to prevent harassment, heartburn, and other grievances.
