Possession of Original Marksheet Possession of Original Marksheet

5 years ago

Hi, I received an offer from company where they asked me to submit copies of original documents, but when I joined them, the HR informed me to submit an original marksheet & said they will keep it safe in bank locker as collateral. I needed the jon for survival & had no options other then accepting since I was unemployed. They gave me an undertaking of original marksheet (10th) on the company's letter head. I was employed there for approx a month while I got an offer in my hometown so i had to go back to my hometown. I submitted them a coloured laminated photocopy of 12th marksheet to get my 10th original marksheet. This happened under a camera. Due to this the owner of the company is also allegating that I have stolen their business data & clients information which is absolutely false. As per Labour law, no company can withhold an original certificate of an employee. i wanted to understand if the company owner can sue me under the court of law. They are also commencing their commercial business in basement of resedential property which is against the laws of municipal corporation of delhi. Please suggest If I can go against them because they informed me about this at the end moment where I was pressurised to submit the original certificate. (Not mentioned in the offer letter as well that I have to submit original certificate)
