A.Dear Client,
Generally, if you haven't officially started the job and haven't received any compensation, leaving without legal consequences is likely. Review the terms of the appointment letter for any clauses related to notice periods or consequences for not joining. If there's no binding clause and you haven't initiated the employment, notifying the employer about your decision as soon as possible is advisable. However, seeking legal advice specific to your situation is recommended to ensure there are no unforeseen implications or obligations.
Thankyou

A.Dear Client,
Non-reporting to the job by the scheduled date of joining on acceptance of the offer of employment typically stands automatically unenforceable. But it is an implied condition cast on the employee by virtue of acceptance of that offer to inform his decision in writing to the Company to discharge that obligation considering a bright service career ahead.

A.Dear Sir,
Yes, since you have not at all worked in the company without any issue you can leave the company and be clear that your employer may not issue experience certificate or relieving letter.
