travel agency's visa? is that a tourist visa?

and why you are the one who takes care of all your papers? Every normal company has PRO, who is responcible for visas, etc.

But again, visa with your name cannot be approved without NOC from your previous sponsor. But if you are on teh tourist visa, you don't need NOC.

Clarify your information in order to get clear answer.

I assume, by "visit visa" you mean "business visa" .. because if you mean "Tourist visit visa" or "Family visit visa", you don't need a NOC in this case.

now... new (work) visa won't be approved without NOC. The application even won't be accepted without NOC at the time of submission. Unless by "visa approval" you mean "obtaining quota".. but then it's not from immigration, it's from labour.. clarify yourself..

First of all get the offer letter from your second employer where you got job and show them to first employer in order to prepare your NOC. Once you get NOC give it to the second employer to be able to apply work visa
