Non-Compete Agreement [Infosys and other companies]
As per Google Baba: No, non-compete agreements are not legal in India under the Law of Contracts. Section 27 of the Indian Contract Act of 1872 states that any agreement that prevents someone from practising a lawful profession, trade, or business is void. Indian courts have consistently refused to enforce post-termination non-compete clauses in employment contracts. However, employers may claim compensation for loss due to violation. Has anybody faced an issue with the non-compete agreement? #Infosys
