Re: releaving letter from employer

inform the company(New) that you have resigned the job and that they are reluctant to relieve you - the lapse of requsite period youo ar no longer the employee of the old company! so don't worry about it. explain to the present employer and give them sufficient assurance!

Re: releaving letter from employer

It is a kind of exploitation by the company.But there is a flaw on your part also that you had not given one month requisite notice.After submitting your resignation you are no more in employment of your previous company.Utmost you are entitled to pay for one month notice period which you had probably not given.Join your new company and also submit copy of your resignation and also tell them that you shall submit the relieving letter as and when the same shall be given by your previous company. There is no necessity to go in litigation which would otherwise effect your future prospects/career.
