Dear team, If a company wants to extend notice period mentioned already in the appointment letter, can a company force employee to serve the extended period? Regards

No, it amounts to an offer to modify the existing terms of the contract of employment by the employer, which would mandatorily require unconditional acceptance from the employee. If it is done as an amendment to the particular notice clause in the service regulations applicable to all resignations in the future, that's okay. However, forcing an employee who has already submitted their resignation offering to serve the notice period already fixed to serve it for an extended period is not correct.

Dear Friend,
The notice period already mentioned in the appointment letter will apply for the employee who submitted resignation. The company can extend the period of notice for new people joining. The period of notice can also be extended for employees on the roll by issuing a new circular to each individual to obtain their concurrence on the letter as an acceptance for the change in the notice period.
