Since the conciliation has failed, you can now file a case before the Labour Court.

Can we send stay order to steel executive association and continue my father job??

Since your service has been terminated, you have raised dispute before the Conciliation officer. The conciliation officer failed to settle the issue amicably. Hence, you can challenge the order of termination before the Labour Court. 

At this stage there is no scope of fling stay order. High Court, and not labour court, has power to grant stay order and to get stay order you have to approach the High Court. In my opinion High Court will NOT interfere in this case and even ask you to approach labour court.

My suggestion is to file the case before appropriate labour court.

If we won the case in labour court then they will approach high court and file a writ petition..they are using association money to deal with my father but we cannot bear that much of money sir.they are doing commercial business without having any registration of shops and establishments act but they employed only my father from 20 years as a security ..there is no proper timings,minimum wages,esi and pf since my father is the only 1 watchman for that sea bhavan society..I wanted to know,what are the benifits shall my father will get for his 20 years of service sir..?

Law does not work on emotions. Big companies have money and manpower to drag a litigant till Supreme Court and there is technically no 'illegality' in doing so. This is the unfortunate truth. 

Whether the company is registered under Shops & Establishment Act is also immaterial in your case of termination. 

If the company is really coverable under the ESI, PF and Minimum Wages, then you may lodge a complaint  before their respective authorities so that you can pressurize the company. Again this has nothing to do with your termination case.

You may get any due salary, leave encashment, gratuity, retrenchment compensation etc.

Finally what is the position of my father case sir,now what we have to do..the sea association is registered as a welfare society and my father is the only security for that association.now after 20 years of service,they terminated my father job illegally..now where we have to go ? We asked re-employement of my father in front of labour commissioner..they are not agree with re-employement and compensation pay ..now where we have to go for proper justice sir? We need to approach Hight court or labour court??

You need to approach the Labour Court. Before that you need to consult a labour law advocate with all necessary documents. Only after seeing all documents, he can tell you about the merit of your case.
