A. Dear Client,

Under Section 12(1)(a) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, non-consummation due to impotency of either spouse renders a marriage voidable. However, proof of impotency is crucial, usually established through medical examination. Consummation, though not legally required, can affect the legal status of the marriage. If one spouse is incapable of intercourse, unknown at the time of marriage, the marriage may be eligible for annulment. Section 24 of the Special Marriage Act, 1954 allows ...ReadMore

The specific consequences depend on the nature of the offense, the country you're applying to, and its immigration laws.

A. Dear Client,

Upon resignation following the terms of the offer/appointment letter, the employer cannot withhold the No Objection Certificate (NOC) or relieving letter of the outgoing employee without a valid reason, as per Section 27 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872. Any clause restricting an employee's right to resign for better opportunities is deemed void. However, if the employer proves that the employee is joining a competitor to disclose trade secrets, the court may issue an injunction.

A. Dear Client,

A registered Resident Welfare Association (RWA) operates according to its by-laws, which prioritize the common interests of all residents. Unless the by-laws empower the RWA to negotiate unpaid dues of a resident owner, the association cannot waive or remit dues. Doing so could set a precedent and harm the collective interests of all residents. Withholding monthly maintenance payments in protest could increase financial liabilities and lead to other consequences as per the associa ...ReadMore

I am Living separately for 7 years. I would like my wife and my 2 kids come back to my home


A. Dear Client,

Living separately for an extended period, such as seven years, doesn't obligate your family to reunite with you against their will. Even a court cannot compel your family to reconcile after such prolonged separation, which constitutes a valid ground for divorce under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 if either spouse applies for it. However, under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, a spouse can petition a district court for the restitution of conjugal rights, which allo ...ReadMore

If a lessor defaults on their debt to the bank, the lessee may not be permitted to stay in the leased property, even if they have a lease agreement for a specific period. Upon receiving a court order, the bank can request the defaulter to vacate the building for auction to recover the unpaid debt.

A. Dear Client,

It's unusual to serve a company for over six years without an offer or appointment letter. If the company withholds your Full and Final (F & F) Settlement dues upon resignation, it constitutes unfair labor practices under the Industrial Dispute Act, 1947. Additionally, employees are entitled to gratuity under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, after five years of continuous service.

In the absence of an appointment letter, other documents like salary slips, job cards, or EPF/ESIC ...ReadMore

icon Cancellation of upgrad loan

How should I cancel loan while they were saying already batch started


A. Dear Client,

Canceling a loan after disbursal could impact your CIBIL credit score. It's crucial to do so within the cooling-off period specified in the loan agreement terms. If you haven't used any part of the loan, you can cancel it in writing, potentially incurring higher processing fees. If some of the loan has been disbursed, you can still cancel it by repaying the disbursed amount plus accrued interest and applicable cancellation charges.
