    Case Summary: WP/334/2026 Bharat Aviation Pvt. Ltd. v. Rahul Sudhindra Soni The High Court of Bombay set aside an Industrial Court's interim order directing the employer to issue a relieving letter and service certificate to an employee who left employment before completing a mandatory three-year service bond following specialized training. The court held that the training bond was valid and enforceable, and the employer was justified in withholding the certificates since the employee breached the contractual obligation by resigning without required 60-day notice and without paying Rs. 10 lakh liquidated damages. However, the court allowed the employee to negotiate reasonable compensation to resolve the dispute. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
