Hi,
I'm working in a private firm in Mysore. Now I have received an offer in Bangalore. Following this, I submitted my resignation via email. Prior to this, I was told that I did not have any notice period to serve in the company. However, I am facing an issue now as they have not acknowledged my resignation. I have not received any response to the email, and they have not initiated a discussion on the matter. Despite my numerous attempts to address the situation, it seems futile to pursue the matter further.
The HR team and the current Functional Manager/Supervisor are unresponsive to my emails and written communications, continually postponing any discussions when I press for answers. My concern lies in the fact that the company has neither accepted my resignation nor provided a timeline for my release. This lack of communication is jeopardizing a promising career opportunity for me.
I seek guidance on the best (legal) course of action to swiftly exit the company.
Thank you.
From India, Hyderabad

If your factual details are correct and indisputable, your employer has no locus standi to be silent or unresponsive to your resignation submitted through e-mail.
In the absence of a notice clause for unilateral termination in the contract of employment, any valid reason, such as the difficulty in finding a suitable replacement due to such an immediate exit, certainly capable of hampering the day-to-day affairs of the organization, may justify the postponement of the acceptance of your resignation to some extent. At times, any pending disciplinary action against the employee can act as a bar to his resignation. I think that such a presumption is ruled out in your case. Therefore, the employer cannot simply keep mum.
However, a smooth and formal exit is inevitable for your unabated career benefits. Hence, a little more patience can be observed to avoid unnecessary future problems.
It's better to send a letter by registered post urging the necessity of accepting your resignation and relieving you on the particular date as you had already mentioned in your resignation.
