I've been working with a company for 4 years now, starting as a fresher. To be fair, they've provided me with a couple of good breaks (after the usual politics and disappointments!). However, I want to change the job now since I feel my potential is yet to be tapped and also that I am worth more than the current CTC. The problem is that they will not accept my resignation citing the rare good things they've done for me, expecting loyalty. I can however claim relocation or my non-existent wedding(!) as an excuse for a smooth exit. What do you suggest?

Tell the truth; be honest to them and say you want to move on, since you feel you could do a lot more with your potential; as far as I know, there is no way they can tell you you cant; they might say that cause they see the convanience of having you there, but they must take your resign without any lie.
Give them the 2 weeks notice or just the enough amount of time for you to find another job.
It happened to me once, and they told me the same thing, that I couldnt leave, that we had a contract, etc; but there is no way they can force you. Now once you have put the 2 weeks notice, (like in my case) they might be some nightmares on your job, but its fair enough, move on, so sorry if they wont accept your resignation your moving anyway, thanks for the experience and the past benefits; but they cant compromise you nor buy you.
Good luck!

I have never heard of a company not accepting a resignation. Sometimes they may come and offer you a better deal to stay, but how can they make you stay no matter what has transpired in the past?
I would not lie to them, just tell them you are looking for a position with more potential and you won't be in.
Good luck

Take some time before resigning, ask them for a pay increase , I they say no, or increase unsatisfactorily then take around 2 weeks and resign then, in the meanwhile search new jobs, and yea u can use the lie

First spell out your career ambition clearly. This is nothing but emotional, once you stand firm in your decision they can do little about it. You need to have different kind of work experience and the new job gives you a different kind a experience.

potential within you should be utilised. To resign use a lie.

Don't claim anything. Resign and move on.
