A.Dear Client,
On cessation of employment irrespective of grounds of cessation, an employee is entitled to get an experience certificate from his ex-employer who is duty-bound to issue an experience/relieving certificate along with other service linked benefits. But when an employee left the Company without serving a notice period as per the terms of employment that may be treated as a breach of contract and Company can initiate legal action against the employee for breach of contract claiming compensation for damages caused to the Company and can withhold your service linked benefits including the issue of experience/relieving certificate. Breach of contract on the part of the employee puts a stigma in his service career and an experience certificate fixing such a stigma may not serve any purpose of an employee in the rest period of his career. So, in the prevailing situation, try to negotiate with the Company to get a clean experience certificate that may meet your purpose in the long run.

A.Dear client,
You can lodge a complaint against your employer at the police station.
It is every employee's right to receive an experience certificate.No employer can deny the experience certificate to his employees. You can issue a legal notice to the employer.
