Know The Law | Whether Employment Bonds Are Legally Enforceable In India? Supreme Court Explains https://www.livelaw.in/supreme-court/know-the-law-whether-employment-bonds-are-legally-enforceable-in-india-supreme-court-explains-297276
Legal principles relating to the interpretation of standard form employment contracts were summarized as follows:
"(i) Standard form employment contracts prima facie evidence unequal bargaining power.
(ii) Whenever the weaker party to such a contract pleads undue influence/coercion or alleges that the contract or any term thereof is opposed to public policy, the Court shall examine such plea keeping in mind the unequal status of the parties and the context in which the contractual obligations were created.
π (iii) The onus to prove that a restrictive covenant in an employment contract is not in restraint of lawful employment or is not opposed to public policy, is on the covenantee i.e. the employer and not on the employee
The Court cautioned against oppressive or unconscionable clauses, particularly in standard-form contracts where employees may have little bargaining power. This ruling aligns with precedents like Niranjan Shankar Golikari v. Century Spinning Co. 1967 SCC OnLine SC 72, which upheld reasonable restrictions during employment but struck down post-termination bans.
A fruitful reference was also made to the case of Superintendence Company (P) Ltd. v. Krishan Murgai, (1981) 2 SCC 246, where the court, upheld the validity of restrictive covenants during the subsistence of a contract.
βIn view of these authoritative pronouncements, it can be safely concluded law is well settled that a restrictive covenant operating during the subsistence of an employment contract does not put a clog on the freedom of a contracting party to trade or employment.β
Reverse burden of proof.

In this peak time students are solving too many MCQs and mock tests of various tutors However the correct way to practice them is if not known is mentioned below.
Why to solve mock tests:

The challenges maybe briefly enunciated as follows:
(a) Diversity of Subjects of laws in one paper.
(b) Diversity in terms of length, difficutly of questions, some are out of the box, some are difficult some medium some very easy.
(c) To check the speed π
(d) To fill the OMR or use computer.
(e) Proof reading and avoiding minor mistakes which can cost 1 or 2 years.
(f) Last but not the least suitable questions as per previous years basic pattern of difficulty and type of questions.
(g) To prevent negative marking by learning the nom of attempts to be made in a type of paper.
If you aren't facing any of the challenges kindly revisit.
Now what after solving?
Check all the MCQs whether Correct or incorrect read them once again recall the provision or concept of law or grammar and the reasoning behind the answer.
Please remember the above challenges if you are able to cope up with it in a good level of mock test then you need not waste a lot of time in MCQs, try to revise the subjects especially the Bare acts language and underline the areas from where MCQs can be made.
