✅ Is an Offer Letter a Legally Binding Contract?
YES! Once you accept a formal offer letter, it becomes a legally binding agreement under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. But… there are conditions! 🤔
🔹 If You Haven’t Joined Yet – The employer CAN modify or revoke the offer, unless a contract is signed. ✍️
🔹 If You Have Already Joined – The employer CANNOT change terms unilaterally without mutual consent. ⚖️
🔹 Changes Must Be Fair & Justified – Any modification should comply with labor laws & company policies. ✅
⚠️ If the offer letter states “subject to change,” modifications may be valid! 📑
