Dear Mr.JS Malik, Notwithstanding the nature of the crime, if the intention of the management is only to issue a warning or imposing a fine, acceptance of the delinquent employee is sufficient without the formalities of the Domestic Enquiry. In case however, taking into account the enormity and seriousness of the crime/ misdemeanour, if the intention of the management is to terminate, or reduction in salary and or designation, Domestic Enquiry is mandatory. What one has to ensure is that when charges are framed they are in accordance with the provisions of the Standing orders of the Company.
