Full & Final settlement refused! - pls advice

I quit my Indian company of 22 months and have joined a new one out of India.

I had given my full notice period and have received my relieving letter too.

Now, I have the following due from the company:

1. Reimbursements --- partly paid
2. Salary upto last day --- partly paid
3. Bonus --- refusal to pay
4. Paid leave encashments --- refusal to pay

For 1&2 - The company does not respond when it is going to pay the remaining.

For 3&4 - Company policies are cited for not paying the same. The bonus and PLE were due in April'08 but till the time I resigned in Sep'08 the company delayed payments under vague reasons and now they say that to claim the same, you have to be an employee when it becomes due for payment! I have all documents where the payment schedule for bonus and PLE are clearly stated.

After repeated followups and escalations to the MD, I have received part payments for 1&2 but that is less than 40% of what they owe me.

Before filing a court case, can I put pressure on the company in any way? By informing concerned authorities etc?

can you please tell me about the section of law,my co.is indian Pharmaceutical co.based at Gujrat State,co's HRD is also at Ahmedabad Head Office,i am a Medical Representative based at M.P.
One more thing,co.does not have certified standing orders, regarding this matter i asked to my inquiry officer, she avoided my query,and told me that "standing Orders are not necessary for domestic inquiry" Is it true?
she told me something about new rules given by Supreme Court,is she telling a lie?

The company has its Corporate Office in New Delhi and they do not have any Factory. The manpower of this company is according to the PF applicablity is over and above 20 since starting it process.

The directors are not interested to introduce PF in the orgn. so Nobody has taken interest to introduce the same.

May any members advise me how can I go about it.

Over time rules in Kerala

Dear Sirs,

We have a new project in Kerala and we engaged EPC contract. our manpower is only management staffs like Engineers, Senor Engineers managers etc( not workers or labours). Since it is a on site job our normal working hours are 10+1.
As per labour law 8 hours daily working time and 50 hrs OT for a month is applicable ( as per my knowledge ). But in our case it may go more if we will keep daily working hours as 8 hrs. we are ready to pay more money to staff if they worked more hours. But my question is " the rule of 50 hr OT per month". In our past case many time the OT hrs exceed 50 hrs. Also we dont want to increase manpower instead of giving OT. If the staffs agreed to work for 10 hrs per day, is it possible? please clarify.
