My company has this clause in the Offer letter when I joined

[TrishaManiac]

During the period of employment and, unless prohibited by controlling applicable law, for standard employees twelve (12) months or Fixed term employees six (6)months following the termination of such employment for any reason including, but not limited to, involuntary termination with or without cause, Employee may not, without the Company's written consent, solicit, sell or perform, for his/her own account or for any other entity, services or products which are directly or indirectly competitive with the services or products of the Company to or for any client for which Employee or employees under his/her managerial control have solicited, sold or performed any such services or products on behalf of the Company during any part of the year immediately preceding the termination of his/her employment.

yes. client daggara fte tempting unte take it and be prepared for one of 2 outcomes:

employer starts threatening - case gets messy - usually lawyer proposes a settlement for 15-20k. aa process lo vaadi pilaka nee daggara emanna unte reverse lo threaten and call it even. ee whole process ki kaasta mental strength and patience undali. employer screwed me ani anukunte kaadu, rule break chesindi nuvvu, vaadu kaadu

best case : employer will not make a scene.
