Salary,designation alone does not decide.

The employee may be covered by def. of 'Employee' as in Shops & Estbs Act.

Civil suit of recovery,damages,winding up peition,complaint u/s 406,420....................etc may be other recourse.

Thanks, one more thing which I missed while posting, the employment contratc says that matter related to the terms of employment and related disputes will be refferred to an Arbitrator who will be appointed solely by the company. 

Civil suit of recovery may take a longer period and company's generally use it as delay tactics, any faster options if I can have, is it fruitfull to approach Arbitration bench or someother bodies which gives quicker decision?

You have signed by your free will.

You may prefer to engage a very able counsel specializing in labor/servcie matters with copies of all docs on record.

Your counsel can also opine whether the issue at your hands can also be subjected to arbitration!
