You can send a legal notice to the company demanding your salary, highlighting the delay and your completion of the notice period. The law requires employers to pay salaries within a reasonable time, and you can pursue legal action if payment is not received within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days of sending the notice.

It’s not a huge amount (₹30,000), but I’m worried about the cost of pursuing legal action. What should I do next?

I’ve been driving for a chartered accountant working in a private company for the past 10 years. He used to pay me a fixed amount every month, but now wants me to leave as he no longer needs a driver. I’m worried because this was my main source of income and it’s tough to find another job. Are there any laws that can help me get something like gratuity, pension, or even a small compensation for my long service? I know he earns a lot more than what he paid me. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
