When I inquired about it, my employer told me to leave and promised to settle it later. It’s been over a year now, and despite repeated emails, I haven’t received my due wages. What can I do to get my salary?

Under the Payment of Wages Act, 1936, your employer is legally obligated to pay your salary within a stipulated timeframe. You can file a complaint with the Labour Commissioner or the appropriate authority in Mumbai. You can also pursue legal action in a civil court to recover your unpaid wages and damages.

I worked as General Manager Sales for a well-known instrumentation company in RT Nagar, Bangalore, from February 2014 to December 2015. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive my salary for October 2015, so I sent a resignation email requesting my release and pending payments. However, the Director responded by terminating my employment on December 24, 2015, and included a complex calculation for interest on stock investments during my tenure. My appointment letter clearly outlines my salary terms, which don’t mention any such clause. I’m seeking advice from a labor consultant to help me navigate this situation.
