This query is : Resolved
Hi,
I was working in a consultancy until July 2015 because of ill health & stressful environment I resigned after 7 years of service
They made me sign an agreement before 2days of LWD asking me to sign T&C not to join any competitor for a year and salary will be cleared after 45 days and then Relieving letter will be given, Also, incentive will be cleared in March on pro rata basis(these policies were designed for me only and at last moment i were told I had no choice but to accept)
they cleared the salary and relieving letter was given in Dec after so much of follow-up
Now they are delaying incentive payment saying will let me know. They are misbehaving over call avoiding call.... I needed money for investment as from April interest rate is decreased. Neither they are confrming the amount not the payment date...this has spoiled my plans ...what action can I take in this case...please advise....thanks

The condition imposed you has no standing in law.
You may serve a Notice through a lawyer on the former employer seeking the incentive as per the general norms.

Send a legal notice to the company authorities mentioning all the facts and details and asking for the explanation for the delay of the payment. Also send the copy to the labour commissioner of your city.

I agree with experts, claim the incentive through Court process, if the employer is denying/delaying.
