I worked at XXX Engineering Ltd (previously known as XXX and Engineering Services Ltd) from May 1, 2007, to May 2016. However, after serving the company for 9 years, they have not paid my gratuity and one year's salary from February 2015 to January 2016.

I have sent several emails to our president, YYY, but no action has been taken.

What should I do in this matter?

Contact your area labor inspector to find the commissioner for Gratuity settlement and lodge a complaint. They will assist you thereafter. You can also seek assistance from the labor court. For information on gratuity, refer to [Payment of Gratuity Act, Rules, Forms, Returns & All Other Information](http://www.shramsamadhan.com/p/payment-of-gratuity-act-rules.html).

If you have not received your salary, file a complaint with the labor department under the Shops and Establishment Act. If you are covered by the Payment of Wages Act, you can seek recourse under that as well.

Thank you for the valuable advice and directions. I have another question. Presently, I am in Jodhpur, and in my last company, I was working in Indore. Can you please guide me on where I should file complaints - at the Labour Commissioner's office in Jodhpur or in Indore court? Your guidance on this matter would be much appreciated.

Labour is a state subject. So you have to lodge it at indore as the states are different.

How many employees were on the company roll when you separated from them? If the number was more than 10 the act was applicable otherwise it is not applicable.
