Can my manager not accept my resignation?

I am working in a service based IT company in India. I got selected in campus placement and was onboarded in October 2021. The offer letter does not have any contract or bond that I have to work for x years or that I have to return my salary if I resign soon. Now I have an offer from a better product company and I wish to change my job. I handed in my resignation on 20th Feb 2022, and the HR told me that my notice period was 1 month (Notice period at my company is usually 3 months but since I am in my probation (first 6 months) it is 1 month for me). So my last working day is today (21st Mar 2022). But my manager is not approving my resignation. What my manager says: “I won't relieve you, if you want a product role join our…


I am working in a service based IT company in India.

I got selected in campus placement and was onboarded in October 2021. The offer letter does not have any contract or bond that I have to work for x years or that I have to return my salary if I resign soon.

Now I have an offer from a better product company and I wish to change my job.

I handed in my resignation on 20th Feb 2022, and the HR told me that my notice period was 1 month (Notice period at my company is usually 3 months but since I am in my probation (first 6 months) it is 1 month for me).

So my last working day is today (21st Mar 2022). But my manager is not approving my resignation.

What my manager says:

“I won't relieve you, if you want a product role join our product department. Its just been 4 months.”

My manager keeps repeating the same again and again.

Note: My company also has a product division.

But I don't like my current role as I have to work on SAP and the product role's scope is small, and I am not interested in that either.

What can I do? Any help is appreciated. I feel very frustrated lately because of all this.
