Settlement & pf

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I was employed as the General Manager/ Director by a Chinese firm In Bangalore for over 3 years, And have unfortunately quit over some disagreements, post which I resigned of my service and have signed all documentation requested by the company. I had received an email from the company confirming that if all documents are signed the settlement along with all other formalities will be settled.

However post me signing all documents and adhering to their requests they have started ignoring all my mails and calls for the request to settle of my dues and PF.

Also due to the disagreements the company senior executives have started to spread false allegations and defaming my reputation in the market - can an individual sue a company for defamation.

Can I sue this company, if yes what are the procedures.

Thanks

George Mohan
