How sending a legal notice actually works

The law this document is drafted against — sources last read 25 August 2026

We last opened the official published source for each provision below on 25 August 2026 and confirmed the text we cite is still there. That is a check of the source, not advice about your situation.

  • An application to the Industrial Tribunal must be made within 2 years of the terminationSection 4(11), Industrial Relations Code, 2020 — the application referred to in sub-section (10) shall be made to the Tribunal before the expiry of two years from the date of discharge, dismissal, retrenchment or otherwise termination of service; section 4(10) permits that direct application forty-five days after the worker has applied to the conciliation officerRead the source — opened 25 August 2026
  • A retrenched worker with a year's continuous service is owed one month's notice (or wages in lieu) and fifteen days' average pay for every completed yearSection 70, Industrial Relations Code, 2020 — no worker in continuous service for not less than one year shall be retrenched until (a) one month's notice in writing stating the reasons, or wages in lieu of notice, (b) compensation equivalent to fifteen days' average pay for every completed year of continuous service or any part thereof in excess of six months, and (c) notice to the appropriate Government; read with section 2(zh) (definition of retrenchment) and section 66 (continuous service)Read the source — opened 25 August 2026
You (the Sender)
The employee who was terminated or whose dues were withheld.
The Employer
The company or person who terminated you, and where the notice will be delivered.

Where the notice will be posted — a deliverable postal address.

The termination and what you are owed
Describe your role, how you were let go, and what you want done now.

Optional.

Optional. Whole rupees.

How long they get to respond or comply. 15 days is customary.

Optional. Mention emails, HR tickets, or calls already made.

Optional but worth filling. The town or city of the office or site you worked at. Courts there can hear the case, and an employer's first move is often to say you filed in the wrong place. Left blank, the notice says nothing about it.

Optional — one clause, in your own words.

Choose delivery
Pick the notice kit only, or have the notice sent for you.

Evidence & Supporting Documents

Add anything that supports your claim — an invoice, a WhatsApp chat, a payment screenshot, even a handwritten notebook. This is optional, but a notice backed by proof carries far more weight.

Your evidence: Nothing added yet

You have not added any evidence yet. You can still send the notice — but the items below are what a lawyer asks for first, and gathering them now is far easier than later.

What to gather

  • The termination letter, email or message that ended your employmentMost importantEverything turns on what the employer said and when. The date fixes your deadline, and the reason they gave is the one they are stuck with later.Terminated verbally, or just told to stop coming in? Write down the date, who said it and what was said, and add the message asking them to confirm it in writing under Communications. A refusal to put a termination in writing is itself worth recording.
  • Your appointment letter or contract, with any notice-period clauseMost importantIt proves you were employed, on what pay, and what notice you were entitled to — which is what a termination is measured against.No letter? The offer email, or the thread where the role, pay and notice period were agreed, does the same job — add it under Communications.
  • Proof of how long you actually worked there — payslips, attendance, or bank creditsCompensation for a retrenchment is counted per completed year, and 240 days worked in your last twelve months counts as a full year. Without a record of your service, the figure is your word against theirs.Bank statements showing the salary arriving each month prove tenure just as well as payslips do.

This is a checklist of what a lawyer usually asks for first — not a judgement about your case, and never a reason you cannot send the notice. We go by how you describe each item; nobody opens your files to check them, so tick things off honestly — the list is only useful if it is true. You can add more evidence at any time, and only you and our team can see what you upload.
