Unpaid salaries and other dues

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 29 January 2012 This query is : Resolved 
My ex-employer have not paid my last 3 months' salary and there are other dues as well. In dec they asked me and other employees to leave the company and board passed a resolution that the all dues will get clear by the end of the month (dec 2011). Only partial amount has been cleared and the employer is continuously making false commitments to clear my dues. Please advise what are the option I have. can I file a case against them? If yes, then can i file the case in the city where i rendered my services or at the place where the company has its registered office? and how much would it cost me?

1.If the employer is a Public Company then Writ lies to recover the dues.
2. If it is Private Company then you could
a. file a civil suit for recovery of money or
b. criminal case for criminal breach of trust and cheating.

The cases need to be filed where you worked or where the registered head office or the branch office is situated.

You should serve a legal notice to your ex. employer and thereafter may file civil suit or writ petition, as the case may be.

AS THE COMPANY IS PRIVATE YOU CAN FILE ONLY SUIT.
prabhakar singh (Expert) 30 January 2012
ABOUT 8% AS COURT FEES IN UP EXCLUSIVE OF EXPENSES AND LAWYER'S FEES.
YOU NEED TO CHECK WITH LOCAL LAWYER WHERE SUIT HAS TO BE FILED.
