ShrikantDesh
If an employee is not paid for 14 months, and has been said to stop his services without any prior notice and if his dues are still not paid for 4 months after stopping his services, what are legal consequences for company to bare if employee goes into labor court?

If an Employer does not pay for two months or three months...then why should an employee attend to work. He or she could have stopped attending to work.
The employee can either move the Payment of Wages Authority who is normally in the Labour Department and rquest for intervention
Labour Law Index
You have following recources :-
1) Under Shops and Establishment act, lodge a complaint with your Labour Department
2) Under Payment of Wages Act, lodge a complaint with Labour Department
3) If there are more people like you join with them and launch a semi class action suit in labor court under Industrial Dispute Act.
4) You have worked for 14 month so you are eligible for Bonus under section 8 of Bonus Act. Again launch a complaint in labour department. But see section 1 of Bonus Act for eligibility of your company.
5) Find a trade union for support. Use them. For Trade Union See Trade Union Laws, Registration, Returns & Procedure
6) Launch a civil suit under Indian Contract Act for non payment.
