Dear Sir,
I joined a company 7 months ago, and in my joining letter, it was mentioned that a notice period of 90 days is to be served after separation from both sides or in lieu of. However, the management has now asked me to separate as they no longer require my services due to poor financial conditions. They are requesting me to serve a notice period of only one month, and they will only pay if I go to work.
What actions can be taken to demand in lieu of if they are not giving a three-month notice period?
Best regards

If the organization is not a factory employing more than 100 employees, the notice period as mentioned in the appointment order itself is illegal because the maximum notice required to be given to terminate employment in an establishment having less than 100 workers is one month. It is true that from the employee who has resigned and gone they should have collected three months' notice pay, and they should have insisted you also to work for three months if you had offered to go. But if you fight for the two months' salary, the matter will be spoiled, and that may even affect your career. Therefore, accept whatever is offered and take a good and clean chit from the employer.
