Once a court passes an order requiring you to serve out your notice
period,
you will have to comply.
Just ensure that the calculation of salary is done consistently-
ideally,
see what standards they use when they are paying out notice pay to
employees, and insist that the same calculations should apply.
Wouldn't this fall foul of bonded labour regulations?
A friend of mine quit an IT major three months after joining, while
still in his mandatory training period. His superior said she couldn't
record it as a resignation. She'd get investigated for that, so she
was going to mark him as absconding.
He received a notice from them demanding he pay up the "training fee"
bond. A lawyer advised him to ignore it since it wouldn't stand in
court anyway. He did, and in over six years since, hasn't been
bothered by them again.
