You should immediately contact a lawyer to discuss the situation. Falsifying documents and quitting your job without notice can be serious offenses under Indian law, and your former employer may have grounds to sue. A lawyer can advise you on the best course of action to mitigate potential legal repercussions.

My company suddenly fired me, citing poor performance and misconduct, which is completely unfair. I’ve consistently exceeded expectations, bringing in significant profits. Despite this, they’ve been deducting from my salary since April and haven’t paid me my full amount on time. They’ve also been disrespectful and humiliating, creating a hostile work environment. While I owe them a small amount, they haven’t tried to recover it before firing me. They now demand immediate payment, but they owe me a much larger sum, including my full and final settlement, unpaid salary, notice period, pending payments, bonus, earned leave, and expenses I incurred for the company. I proposed deducting their dues from my final settlement and paying me the remaining balance. They owe me much more than I owe them.

I worked at a school for seven years. When I was pregnant for the first time, they gave me unpaid leave. However, they refused leave during my second pregnancy, even though they assured me they would call me back. I left in August 2014, and they cleared my PF in February 2015. I later learned about gratuity and, after arguing, they paid it in August 2015. I was five months pregnant at the time and want my job back. I don’t have an appointment letter, but I have an experience certificate signed by them. They won’t pay gratuity, bonus, or leave encashment, but they did pay my gratuity after I showed them legal papers. Can I do anything to get my job back?

Hi, I’ve been working as an executive in a public sector company for 4 years and 6 months. My 5-year bond ends in August 2016. I’m planning to start my own business (everything’s in place) while still working full-time. What challenges could I face? Would an LLP be a better choice than a Private Limited company for a new venture?

I worked at a construction company, starting August 1st, 2012, and left on December 22nd, 2012. I took leave from October 18th to November 11th, 2016, for family issues and was unable to return. My boss advised me to resign, which I did on December 22nd, 2016. However, I haven’t received my salary for September 2016 to November 11th, 2016, even after withdrawing my EPF. It’s been over 7 months since I resigned, and I’m still waiting for my due payment. Can you please guide me on how to get my outstanding salary?

I joined my company three years ago. My salary was revised last year in March, including a performance bonus of ₹1 lakh. I’m leaving on January 31st. My company refuses to pay my bonus pro-rata, claiming it’s against their policy to give bonuses to employees leaving before a year. However, there’s no written policy document stating this, and it wasn’t mentioned in my contract. I feel frustrated because it’s my hard-earned money, and I deserve the bonus. Is there any legal recourse I can take in this situation?

Previous Article My husband and I got married in Bangalore four and a half years ago. He’s always been private, keeping his business dealings a secret. We haven’t had any children yet. I left him two months ago because of this. Now he wants me back, promising to reveal his business and make me happy. I want to save our marriage, but I’m not sure how to trust him. Someone mentioned an “undertaking” – could that help me get him to be more transparent? What legal options do I have to make him accountable?
Next Article I’ve been working as an AGM in Administration for 15 years at a leading Canadian Engineering firm. I’m a regular employee with all the relevant documentation, including salary slips, PF contributions, appointment letter, salary revisions, and performance letters. My appointment letter states a 2-month notice period on either side. The company is planning to reduce its workforce starting January. If they terminate my employment, am I entitled to any compensation beyond the 2-month notice salary? Could I potentially claim a 15-month salary as compensation? Is there any specific law that governs this? I’d appreciate your expert advice on this matter.
