Dear Sir,
I was working with a mangement concern for about 1 year and 3 months. Intially i agreed to work for three years on the condition of mutual benefit.After completion of my probation period they did not give any confirmation letter.They increased my salary by a very less margin, which was not enough to take care of myself. I requested to increase my salary but it was received by deaf ears.Later when I got a new job, I went to a senir management guy to inform about this. He told me that if i resign today itself I will be releived today itself. Keeping his words I resigned but, now the company management refuses to releive me. It is asking me to pay rs 75000 as expenses to get relived which is about nine times my original salary. The company also did not provide any basic pf , epf to me during my entire tenure. Also In the only document received from them they did not mention anything about notice period.I also did not sign any legal documents such as bond documents. now they are threatenig me to drag into court if i do not pay the amount. Kindly help me in this regard.
Regards

Complain with Labour Commissioner.
Send legal notice as well.
You are not bound to pay such illegal amount.

In the light of given facts, you need not to care for their threatening as no action can be initiated against you. It shall be better if you serve a legal notice for the clearance of your dues and issuance of NOC.
You join with the new employer without any hitch.
