I worked for a large Indian IT company, listed on both the Bombay and National Stock Exchanges, with an office in Mumbai. My appointment letter was from Gurgaon, but I was based in Patiala for a project. In 2012-2013, the company stopped paying my salary, even though they promised to catch up soon. Because of this, I had to resign and was relieved according to company policy. I’m from Bharatpur, Rajasthan. Can I file a lawsuit in Bharatpur to recover my unpaid salary? If the company closes down, what steps can I take to get my money?

You can file a lawsuit for unpaid salary in a court with jurisdiction over your place of work (Patiala) or where the company’s registered office is (Gurgaon). If the company closes down, you can pursue your claim in the liquidation proceedings, if any, or file a claim with the company’s liquidator.

Previous Article A tenant in my shop has only given 2 weeks’ notice before leaving, instead of the agreed 1 month. They also haven’t paid their last month’s rent/electricity bill. They’ve handed over the keys, but I’m left with unpaid bills. I’ve asked them to sign a letter acknowledging this, but they refuse and demand their full deposit back, even after deducting only 2 weeks’ worth of costs. Should I hold onto their deposit until they sign, or pay them what I think is fair and risk being sued? How easy is it for them to win a legal case in this situation?

Faced with police pressure, the company forced ‘A’ and ‘B’ to settle the difference by depositing the missing amount. The company is now the first party, and ‘A’ is the second party. How can ‘B’ protect themselves from potential legal action under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act?
