Sub- Notice of resignation
I understand that as per the terms of the appointment, an employee has to give two months notice of his intention to resign from the service. Thus the period of notice commences from the date of the letter of the resignation or at least from the date of receipt of such letter by the employer but not from the date of acceptance of resignation.
It is to be understood that the right to resign from service corresponds to the right to terminate the services of an employee with two months notice by the employer. Now the question is if the employer does not accept the resignation, whether the employee should continue to work with the company even after expiry of the notice period or shall he be demeed to be relieved automatically on the expiry of the notice period.
when the two rights are corresponding, conversely, is the employer bound to continue an employee who refuses to levae the company on the expiry of a two months notice of termination served on him by the employer. Any such restrictive practices on the part of the employee will be violative of the Indian Contract Act and Art.19 of the Constitution.

You will need to speak to the hr in your new company and take their advice.
Tell them of what your hr / manager is saying (which amounts to harassment).
Check with them if they are willing to accept you without relieving letter at the end of your notice period.

Dear Friends,
I am facing an issue with regards to my resignation and my relieving letter. I have served one consultancy for 7months, and it was my first job. I have just got an offer in another co and has asked me to join immediately hence i cannot serve one month's notice period at my last org. I had worked for 15days prior to getting my offer and My manager wants me to pay him back salary of 15days after I got the offer i.e for the time as i m not serving the notice period. He is not accepting my resignation as well nor giving me relieving letter.
Can anyone help me on this please.
Thanks,

Sub-how to get relieving letter
If serving a one month notice of resigantion is one of the terms of employment in your appointment letter or comapny rules, there is no other go for you but to serve the remaining 15 days in your old company or pay them 15 days salary in lieu thereof. Aleternatively, you can plead with your new company to grant you another 15 days time so as to enable you to join them and probably, they will consider your request.
