Non release of wage dues by employer on resignation
On my resignation, I was relieved by my employer on 20 March 2015. At that time, my salary for the month of February was not released. Today it is over 6 months, and release of my dues are still pending. In between, the salary of February was released on 24 July 2015 I.e. after 5 months. My March salary and other dues payable on resignation are not being released by the employer. I am also made to undertake assignments for this company free of cost which I execute thinking that it will facilitate early release of my held up dues. I am a retired PSU person and I took this assignment post my retirement . I am frustrated and depressed. Please guide me.

If you do not have any obligations attached to your resignation vide an appointment order/offer letter, you are very well eligible to issue a demand notice to your employer seeking speedy disposal of your terminal benefits.
You may gather all the records of the payments due to you and remain unpaid till date, issue a legal demand notice mentioning the same and also your previous correspondences in this regard which failed to invoke proper response. You have to send this by a registered post with an acknowledgment card in order secure evidence for the efforts and steps you have initiated in order to wage a legal battle subsequently if the employer still remains unmoved.
1. Issue a lawyer's notice to your ex employer to release your salary.
2. If the notice from your lawyer proves futile then file a lawsuit to seek your salary and also compensation for delay.
