Dear Sir.
I had been in a company for 14 years, though I had never been given an appointment letter. On 28 March 2014 I submitted my resignation letter stating that I will be resigning from the company w.e.f April 1, 2014, giving 5 days notice. We were in a situation that the company fixed a target to achived but not providing adequate work so that the target could be achieved. So at the end of the month company was deducting salary although they were providing the work. We had PF but the company was failing to submit the PF too. We had leave encashment benefit, and I had 24 days of leave to be encashed, that means i have taken only 3 leaves out of 27 leaves and i was supposed to get the enchashment of 24 leaves. But when i got the salary for the month of March 2014, i got only the salary and no leave encashment were given. When i asked the company manager, he told me that since i have served only 5 days notice, he had to adjusted the remaining 24 days leave and i am entitled do get nothing in the form of cash benefit and he could have even not paid the salary of the month of March. It is to remembered that i have not been given any appointment letter for my job during that 14 years. What he has done is justified or did i have any legal right to get the money of that 24 days. Any suggestion or advice will be cordially welcomed.
Thank you
