Consultant deducted salary

Hello All,

I was working for a IT company through one consultant from last 5 months. The project which I was working on was stopped by client and our team of our 60 guys were told to stop working from 10th March 2022. After that we were told that we will be put on some or other projects.

Now the other guys (working directly on company payroll) got full month's salary even others like my working through other consultant (by their consultant company), but my company paid me 1/4 th salary only. Can I have any legal option here in this situation so as the consultant pay me full salary. I am sure the consultant got full salary from company but not paying me.

Thanks,

Nitin

Unless the agreement or contractual conditions are studied, precise guidance is not possible. Contact a local advocate for more guidance and issue a registered notice, for recording the version of the opposite party.
