...gned. This can lead to dissatisfaction and confusion for new employees. Salary Hike and CTC: Negotiating a 20-30% hike is commendable, but the lack of clarity regarding the CTC (Cost to Company) in the offer can be misleading. Employees deserve accurate information upfront. Deductions and Hidden Costs: Deducting costs such as medical allowance, insurance, LTA, lunch, snacks, uniform, and transport without clear communication can be frustrating. Transparency is crucial to build trust. Leave Policy: Having only 14 days of earned leave (without casual or sick leaves) seems restrictive. Adequate leave provisions are essential for work-life balance. Resignation Process and Offer Correction: If you are hired by Lucas-TVS, it is crucial to receive a formal offer letter before taking any steps related to resignation. Insist on having all terms and conditions in writing, including the designation, compensation, and other relevant details. If the offer is not provided officially over email or in writing, exercise caution and seek clarification. The subsequent threat of cancellation adds unnecessary stress. Correcting the offer after joining, especially regarding designation and CTC, is unfair and disappointing. THE COMPANY IS NOT FOR ENERGETIC ONES

No salary growth, no promotions for straight 5 to 6 years to maximum enployees. For each designation there, 2 to 3 grades..and each grade changes in 3 to 4 years. Means designation will change in 5 to 6 years. One should join here , learn and quit in one year.
