The basics
What is an Appointment Letter?
An appointment letter is the formal document issued by an employer to an employee after they have accepted an offer and are joining the company. While the offer letter is about the offer of employment, the appointment letter is the confirmation that the employee has been appointed to the role. It typically contains the finalized terms of employment, starting date, department, reporting structure, and the policies the employee must follow.
In Indian companies, the appointment letter is often the document banks ask for when the new employee opens a salary account, and it's also used by the employee to prove current employment for rental agreements, visa applications, and loan approvals. This makes its legal validity important.

Common mistakes to avoid
What goes wrong when appointment letters are signed the traditional way.
Issuing the appointment letter without verifying the candidate's documents (Aadhaar, PAN, previous employment proof), which can cause legal issues during background checks later
Forgetting to reference the company's code of conduct, leaving a gap in enforceability for disciplinary matters
Not including the IP assignment clause, which becomes critical for engineering and creative hires
Missing the EPF and ESI registration numbers, which employees need for their own HR formalities
Using generic templates without customizing for the specific role and department
Legally valid under Indian law
Appointment letters are fully eligible for Aadhaar eSign under Section 3A of the IT Act, 2000. Since they document the employment contract between employer and employee, they benefit from the same electronic signature recognition as any other commercial agreement. The eSigned appointment letter is accepted by banks for salary account opening, by the Provident Fund office for EPF registration, and by tax authorities for TDS compliance.
