Ex-employer is not paying salary


12-May-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
I have been working in a IT company. Post October, I was put on bench period (where we wait for a project). As there were no available projects, the bench period kept on extending. I tried to help another friend in the meantime who is working in a start up as I was idle. I was promised that I will be paid. There has been no contract signed for my start of work. After three months, the CEO mailed saying Rs. 32K is due on my account and will be paid. I worked two months after that. I have ID, visiting cards everything but no official contract. I left the company after 5 months without payment. Now they are not paying me. Do I have a valid case?

Did you enter into an employment contract with your employer? If yes, then do share the details because it would contain a clause regarding resignation and payment of salary in lieu of notice period. If not, then you should immediately send a legal notice to your employer and demand payment of your dues and if your company then fails to pay then you can approach the appropriate labour court for redressal.
