About this template

What is this template?

This document is a formal extension of an existing employment relationship under Indian law. It contains specific placeholders for a new monthly salary in Rupees and a defined extension period in years. It is not an initial offer of employment or a standalone contract, as it relies on the terms of a previous agreement.

When should you use it?

Use this document when an employee has finished a one-year contract and both parties wish to continue the relationship with updated compensation. Use a standard Employment Agreement instead if the original terms are being completely replaced rather than incorporated.
