Himanshu   02 February 2018

Non payment of salary by company

I am Himanshu sangani, resident of Ahmadabad. 
I was appointed by a company based in Mumbai, namely M/s. Ruby Traders & Exporters Ltd, B-201, Raheja Plaza I, Diagonally Opp. to R-City Mall, L.B.S. Marg, Ghatkopar West, Mumbai 400 086. for Gujarat Region as a sales man. 
 
I am attaching the appointment letter for your ready reference. 
 
I joined the company in the month of Feb 2017. I was paid the salary for the working day of Feb 17 in the month of March. 
 
After that, i worked till June 2017 but company did not paid any salary and conveyance (which was offered in the appointment letter) for these 4 months even after repeated reminders, request and phone calls/messages to the concern authorities. They simply kept on promising that they will pay the same ASAP ( i have chat record available and also emails are communicated in this matter). 
 
Two months back they called me for some settlement but after that the response is null. During my company tenure i have given two TV units on demo after necessary approval, and now they are linking that with my salary. I am willing to pay for those TV units which were given on demo but they are not committing any thing on my Dues. 
 
Kindly look in to the matter and guide me as to how to go legal against this matter.

Do standing orders (model/certified) apply to establishment and your designation?

Probably later the linking of demo set might be as per clause 12.

However as per your post, there was due approval.

Hope you have the copy.

 

Neverthless the company could have issued notice for adjustment and provided FnF sheet if IT wants to adjust the cost.

As per Annexure1 the monthly salary is mentioned so it should have been paid on monthly basis.

While you are posting you were appointed for Gujarat and are resident of Ahmedabad, your HQ is mentioned as Mumbai.

Do you have any communication that your HQ shall be at Ahmedabad?

Your father is entitled to these under mentioned benefits:

1. Salary (approx 15 days salary per year for 20 years)

2. Outstanding wages (for which he has worked and not paid)

3. Leave encashment etc. if any

4. You may challenge his termination or may ask for retrenchment compensation (15 days salary/ per month for every completed years of service -this is not gratuity) if his service was illegally terminated.

You may consult a labour lawyer with documents (appointment letter, termination letter etc.) to decide the next course of action.
