I have all the all the communication related to this is there with me. any legal action can be taken
It depends on whether you had received the Offer Letter / Appointment Letter or not. You cannot claim the position from the company, however you can claim compensation for the losses or damage incurred by you due to the said offer.
You shall have to file a suit for damages and compensation against the company and you can take action on the following grounds:
i. Loss of employment as you had already resigned from your earlier job and obtained an NOC as well, with respect to the job.
ii. If any agreement was signed then breach of contract. In case of no contract, you can also bring the ground of promissory estoppel.
iii. Loss of livelihood.
