Dear Anjali Johnson,
"Termination from services" is a punishment awarded to an employee if, in the domestic enquiry, the misconduct of the employee is proved. Now, which misconduct merits termination is difficult to define. However, by and large, the following misconducts merit the termination:
a) Absconding from duties for a long time
b) Wilful destruction of company property
c) Action involving moral turpitude outside the workplace
d) Physical assault on the employee(s)
e) Wilful sharing of information, not following the rules of data security
f) Any action that tarnishes the image of the company or brings disrepute to the company
g) Theft, forgery, falsification of documents, misappropriate of funds, submission of false claims etc
h) Not following the safety instructions, and not using the tools or instruments as per the SOP.
i) Underperformance of duties even after several warnings
j) Suppression of information about a contagious disease that may harm other employees
You may refer to the list of misconducts given in the Industrial Standing Orders Act applicable to your state.
Termination from the service is the highest punishment and it has to be handled with due sensitivity. Casual on-spot dismissals are to be prohibited. The reason(s) for termination apart, the process is to be handled with due diligence.
Thanks,

The termination of services of employees in mass scale not only bad, when it's done without adhering the laws in force.
The line of Mr Madhu is the appropriate one"there cannot be separate termination policy for IT companies" because all the disputes arise out of termination are to be viewed under the ID Act. As on date no separate Acts have been formulated for separate industrial establishments. Therefore,the Industrial Disputes Act is the only instrument to follow and all such termination to be done as per the rules of the ID Act.
