Company not clearing pending dues after reminders, what to do?
06-Mar-2023 (In Property Law)
Respected Sir, With due respect from comprehending depth of my heart, I would like to enumerate my suffering in humble manners. I was working in one XXX city and having quarter E-44/261 was deputed to other YYY city on 24 Oct-2015 there I have not occupied any quarter, later I was transferred to on 05 July 2016. I have not vacated my quarter instantly due to several issues regarding my increments, service book and other financial bills were pending till October 2016 some of them were still unattended at XXX office and pending more than one year. I have sent many reminders to them but their response was poor and every time they called to meet them. A frequent approach was not possible due to long distance and workload. Further no any quarter was allotted to me till November 2016 at YYY city after my repetitive demands except scrapped quarter which was not taken by me.
If your job was of a supervisory nature as per your 'Senior' Designation, we suggest that you should send the Company a Legal Notice by way of Regd. AD and Speed Post for payment of your salary and other dues within a stipulated time period or else you shall initiate legal proceedings.
In case the payment is not released by the company within the time period, you can then file a civil suit against the company for recovery of salary and other dues as debt. The amount payable to you is in the form of debt on the company and you can hence initiate an action for recovery of this debt. The court fee is about 2-2.5% of the amount you are claiming.
On the other hand,
If your nature of duties would come within the purview of "workman" irrespective of ostentatious designation adorned upon you, then you can file a case before the authority under the Delhi Shops & Establishment Act (if you are working in Delhi), who is the Deputy Labour Commissioner.

This Act though does not apply to persons mainly in managerial or administrative capacity,persons engaged in a supervisory capacity and drawing > Rs.10,000 per month or executing managerial functions and persons subject to Army Act, Air Force and Navy Act or those in police service or officer or employee of a prison.
Alternatively, you can file a claim petition before the authority under Payments of Wages Act. A labour court judge is generally designated for this purpose. Or alternatively, you can file an application under Section 33 C(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act.
