Anamikadeviji,
Employee on probation doesnot require any notice period. The provisions you have quoted apply only after you confirm him into your employment where you establish some privilege by virtue of this clause to exercise your right.
Employee and company has right to terminate services without notice during probation period no matter what you wright in black& white is null and void. Your agreement clause cannot superseeds labour law and practices in India.
For more information or legal opinion contact Lawyer from Supreme or High Courts. Half knowledge is always dangerous.

Hi Anamika,
Why does the offer letter say its 60days and appointment letter says its 3months? which is accurate?
Also, notice period in probation differs from company to company. Your clauses do not specify if these notice periods are applicable during the probation or after the employee is confirmed.
Usually, notice period in probation is 1week. If this employee completed his probation and has been confirmed then he has to serve 2month's period as per the clauses above.
While in the notice period, leaves are not permitted if there is work to be completed. else, they can be adjusted against his notice period at the time of F&F settlement. F&F is done on the last working day of the employee, clearing all the dues that company has to pay him and/or he has to pay to the company.
Btw, please dont get into legal hassels. You cannot sue the employee for not serving notice period. Even if you manage to actually file a suit, it wudnt stand ground in the court and settlement will take hell lot of time......its just not worth it.
