Pl. enlighten on the following points:
1)Your employers have a regd.establishment in India?
2) You have obtained a discharge letter or any other documentary evidence in support of exact period of services rendered on behalf of your employers?
3) what was the mode and date of payment prescribed as the executed Service contract?

You may show the service/employment contract to very able counsel specializing in service matters.

You may also lodge On Board grievance for redressal if that is applicable in your case...............

As your employment was contractual hence both the parties are bound by its specific terms. You need not worry. Serve a legal notice through a lawyer and thereafter file a sit for recovery.
