My brother got this message from his HR. He had signed a 2 yr bond as fresher after bachelor's and he quit after a year. Can they do any harm in terms of career?
If your brother took a signing bonus with 2 year bond then he has to return it.
If there was no signing bonus involved the HR can only threaten, there is nothing they can do.. court will kick them out
He need not return the signing bonus either, depends on the terms of the contract
I agree with @JadArgente but dont take risk.
Usually the contracts protect the company and they are intentionally vague.
If you return the signing bonus back to company, there will be a record of financial transaction that fulfills your obligation of not obstructing recovery.
After this companies will not threaten, they don’t have any incentives and you have a solid proof of good faith cooperation in recovery. No lawyer will want to take up such case.
Always play safe in corporate matters and don’t be a rebel.
Name and shame. Which company is this?
@JadeArgent knows a bit about the enforceability of these bonds.

Thanks @AITookMyJob! I'm a lawyer, if you're looking for specific advice, feel free to DM me on Telegram JadeArgent
Strict legal advice - as @UrbanRun44 mentioned, they can only recover the expenses spent in training him
@101ABC Is this Accolite digital?
His background check will show, better to settle the amount
Just say no. Bonds are not enforceable in India. They lose 100% of the time they go to court, and it's not worth any time/money.
Involve a lawyer and send them a fancy reply, similar to how they've written
