Hi Sushma
 
Your signature line is missing from the message. However, can you please inform us how did you get this advertisement? Some of the things are not clear from your message. Is it a trial position? I don't think this position-holder will be legally part of IEEE workforce.  Then, who will be actual employer for this position in India? Will the employer give all HR benefits to this position-holder as given by standard Indian corporates?  You should inform the Forum accordingly.
