Service agreement
Recent offers have included a service commitment — commonly reported as a ₹1 lakh indemnity bond covering roughly 2 years of service. Confirm the exact terms in your offer letter before signing, as they vary by drive and role.
Criteria differ slightly between campus, off-campus and walk-in drives — the drive notification you register under is the final authority.
