This query is : Resolved
Dear Experts
I have resigned from my previous Organization for almost 2 months. They have issued my experience letter, relieving letter and full and final settlement letter on the last working day itself.
In the settlement letter, it is clearly mentioned that my pending salary for the last working month will be credited on the Company's next salary date. But till date, I have not received the amount. I have also noticed that my ex-colleagues have received their salaries during these 2 months.
I have enquired with my Boss and the Finance department, but they tell to wait as they are in a financial crisis. I have followed up with them via emails.
Please let me know how to proceed to get my Pending salary as I am waiting for 2 months.
Kind Regards
Nitish

In this case, you should serve a legal notice to your employer for recovery of your pending due within 7 days of receipt of the legal notice, failing which you can file a suit for recovery against your employer.

What do you mean by almost 2 months? Also, how much is the amount of salary due to from the employer? Besides, please intimate, if any company assets are with you to be handed over to the company management or your successor?

@ Dhingra.
It's been 2 months since I have resigned from my previous Organization (20 April 2018 - last working day). The pending salary to be received will be Rs. 40000. The employer has mentioned the same amount in the settlement letter.
No company assets are with me.

OK, hire services of some local lawyer, issue legal notice and file a summary suit against the employer, if you fail in your pursuit with the employer.
But be aware, personal pursuit may be far far better than any legal recourse, as that may prove to be harmful to the interest of your career in the long run due to some hidden and unanticipated dangers.

Saying, telling, said, told are all verbal modes of communication and difficult to prove..
The financial crisis is of NO relevance for you.
If any such statement is being made despite paying all employees on current rolls, IT is at the cost and consequences of the past establishment, personnel making such statements on behalf of employer, employer.....
You are at liberty to narrate all past representations and represent to good offices ( under proper acknowledgment) of appointing authority, MD,CEO and ask to release your dues immediately...

In this case you send a legal notice of 7 days to your employer foot recovery of your pending salary dues failing which you'd file a money recovery suit against the employer.
