I worked at New Swan Multitech Ltd in Ludhiana from July 2014 to March 2016. I was never given a proper confirmation letter, and the company didn’t provide any benefits. When I left, I was asked to pay back my advance salary even though I didn’t give notice. I’m in a difficult situation and need help.

You have grounds to dispute the advance salary recovery as you were not provided a proper confirmation letter or benefits. Under the Indian Contract Act, a contract without consideration (like benefits) is voidable. You can also argue that lack of notice period in your employment contract makes the advance recovery unreasonable. Seek legal advice to understand your rights and options for pursuing this matter further.

I’m a senior professional and my employer says she can’t offer me any more work due to recent setbacks. She’s asked me to resign with 2 weeks’ notice. I’ve asked for a month’s salary in lieu of notice, but she’s refused, saying she’ll only pay for the notice period. She also threatened to terminate me immediately with negative remarks and no pay if I don’t resign. I’m requesting my salary, pending leaves, and any outstanding payments, but she’s not budging. What can I do? I need help urgently!

I worked at a company for three years. From February 1st, 2016, my salary was ₹50,000 per month. I resigned on September 26th, 2016, and worked for two more months, leaving on November 25th, 2016. I haven’t received my salary for September, October, and November. After 45 days, on January 13th, 2017, the company said they’d pay me ₹40,000 per month starting from February 1st, 2016, because I didn’t complete a full year. What are my options to get the money I rightfully earned?

My company in Bahrain let me go in December 2015, promising three months’ salary. They agreed to pay in four installments but only gave one in March 2016. Now, the owner has disappeared, leaving us with unpaid dues. Around 15 of us are in this situation, all working from India. We know the owner’s home address here. What legal options do we have to get our money back?

As a bank employee, I was facing a CBI investigation and was listed as a secondary accused (A2). This delayed my promotions. I applied to become an approver, and the prosecution supported my request. The Special Judge of the CBI Court granted me pardon under Section 5(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, which I accepted. I submitted the court order to my employer but they’re holding back my promotion, saying the case is still ongoing even though I’m now an approver. Is their stand justified? Am I eligible for promotion? What is my legal status in the case – am I considered an accused or a witness now?

As an Egyptian working for an Indian company in Egypt, I’ve noticed a change in how they hire employees. Previously, they directly employed staff, but now they’re outsourcing the same roles with lower salaries. This seems unfair, especially since the outsourced employees are doing the same work. I’m concerned about this because Indian law states that if outsourced workers perform the same duties as direct employees, they should receive equal pay, benefits, and working conditions. Could an Egyptian citizen file a case against this Indian company in India regarding this violation? If so, what documentation would I need to prove the violation, and can I grant authorization to an Indian lawyer through the Egyptian embassy? How long would it take for the case to be initiated and a verdict reached? Lastly, what would the estimated legal costs be?
