some courts in india have held bonds to be illegal since it restricts the employees freedom to work freely/practise his profession - however this is usually when the 'bond period' is open ended.
for specific time period of 1-2 years - it may be allowed by courts since companies use time/resources to train employees - who then run off to other greener pastures.
i guess one wont know till one goes to court - but in the other course- companies like infosys, wipro, tcs - have all been having bonds
so you can safely assume that it will not be challenged.

Dear friends,
Courts in India in several cases have held that service Bonds signed by employees are against the provisions of Section 27 of Indian Contract Act and hence not binding. I am attaching a copy of a recent Article written by advocate of Supreme Court for your ready reference.

Bonds are supposed to be mutual agreements.
there have many cases of bonds being violated and the companies taking the 'errant' employee to the court and the honourable court...deciding in favour of the either parties on the basis of the specifics of the case.
my advice would be go in to reading the specific cases and then formulating your policies accordingly. a lawyer or a qualified person HAS to frame the language.
Courts are not to be feared but used to avail Justice. so, when wronged---prepare and fight.
