andhraajay Posted October 19, 2014 Report Posted October 19, 2014 Why amendment Did anything change from your employer like your wage and designation? Quote
andhraajay Posted October 20, 2014 Report Posted October 20, 2014 Me too on the same boat... Changed from MD to CA, never thought Amendment was required in my case, as my position and designation remain unaffected.... Can someone tell when we go for Amendment?? Is it applicable even when for changing contracts Quote
