Non settlement of full and final amount since past 6 months

This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,
I have worked for a management consultancy named EVOLUTION PARTNERS based in Mumbai for 9 months. I resigned in the month of November after serving my notice period.
The company is not settling my overdue. They do not respond to my mails and phone calls. If I give a call from some unknown number, they ask me to call later and then never receive call.
This is the case with many ex employees of the company other than those from IIM background. This is discrimination at heights.
Moreover in my salary component TDS has been deducted every month but it has never passed on to the Govt. After repeated reminders for filing my tax, the director did not provide Form 16A. For other employees PF used to be deducted on regular basis but none of them received a single penny when they quit.
Kindly let me know what steps I can take. Companies like this which do not have any integrity and which breaches trust should be penalized by the law.
Regards,
Nidhi Ratna

issue legal notice to company for recovery of your over due salary

Since it is a private company you have the only option of civil suit.
However to pressurise them you may file criminal case as well on the ground of criminal breach of trust.

First of all, serve a legal notice to pay the due along with interest and other due. Otherwise, file both a criminal as well as a civil suit. In the criminal case if you get the FIR lodged it will create pressure upon them to come forward and negotiate.Be in touch for more.

Hi,
File a Complaint under the Consumer Protection Act,1986.It provides the 'cheapest & quickest remedy'in addition to relief that may be available under any other law.You can fuile a complaint yourself and you can also join others having the same common cause as the Act envisages that a complaint can be fuiled even by a 'group of persons having common cause'.
Since you rendered service on contract of payment but despite rendering your services,the employer is not making payment of the dues for the services you rendered,you certainly have cause of action.Go ahead.
