The copy of the certified copy of judgement has been sent to the department under registered A.D. cover. How much time the employee has to wait before taking any legal action. what legal action can be taken?

Wait for reasonable period. In your case 30 days can be said reasonable. Before taking up issue again with High Court please do issue reminder and demand justice from the concerned authority.

The Government has minimum 60 days to prefer an appeal in the Supreme Court against the order of the High Court. Even if there is some more delay in filing the appeal, the Government can apply for and obtain condonation of delay.
Therefore, waiting for a minimum period of 60 - 65 days would be advisable before moving any contempt petition.
