Employer Not Paying Dues Despite Labour Court Order - Next Steps?


10-Jan-2023 (In Recovery Law)
Hello, I won a Labour court case against my ex employer (I fought PIP) and the final order states that the ex employer has to pay me my dues with x interest. The ex employer has yet not complied with the order despite around 9 months of the order, neither has appealed against the order. I have already initiated the recovery proceedings against the ex employer through the Asst Labour Commissioner. My question is 1) Can I file a contempt of court against the ex employer? 2) If yes, which court will the jurisdiction lie? 3) My aim is to get the order enforced & get my money back. Is there anything that I can do? Thanks in advance.

Don’t file for contempt even if law permits as due to COVID-19
You may file an execution application in the same court that passed the order so as to execute the order as the respondent has not appealed agains the order passed against him
