I'm employee of an IT company where one of the two partners walked out of the company and asked me to join his new company. I was asked to resign from my existing company and sign the Appointment Letter & NDA of the new company, which I did. Now the owner of my existing company says whatever has been done by me and other employees by joining the new company is not legal because of these three reasons: 1) The date that I was asked to put my resignation letter was a previous false date. 2) The resignation letter was accepted by the individual who no longer serves the designation of HR Manager. 3) No relieving letter on company letterhead was provided to me. I'm right now not relieved from my previous company and I've been given a date of 15th Feb 2021 as the joining date of the new company. I'm still with the existing company and there is a bitter feud going on in the public domain between the two partners. Will I be in legal trouble if I stay with my current company or join the new company?

Hi, 1. If this is true, it amounts to fraud and is a valid ground for your dismissal. 2. The person who was manager at the time of you tendering your resignation is the only relevant person here. 3. You can do what is most beneficial to you, but cannot be employed in both places. So you will have to take a decision fast. If you found this helpful, please rate us.
