Hi Reddy
It shouldnt affect your ILR in terms of continuity as long as you switch to tier 2 in country.
Ofcourse when applying in Sept you have to show evidence that you met requirements whilst on wp (e.g. P60s and previous employer letter) in addition to meeting requirement for your employment at the time of applying e.g SOC code, salary threshold per SOC code and letter from employer confirming that you are needed for the employment in question. Hope this helps
