Retrenchment compensation is to be be paid @ 15 days gross wages for every completed year of service of employee. One month notice has to be given before closing of business. If it is not given then one month gross salary has to be given in lieu of notice.

Dear Friend,
Since you were working in HR, you must be aware of Labour Laws. Please contact some good advocate who deals in employment related matters may be able to help you. In my opinion you can approach labour department also a workmen and raise an industrial dispute for recovery of dues.

Dear Rahul,
As per the provisions of Industrial Disputes Act, closure compensation is to be paid for closure of the establishment @ 15 days salary per completed year of service, plus one months notice pay if no notice is given, in addition gratuity if applicable, earlned salary, leave salary, prorata bonus is required to be paid. If this is not done the closure will be illegal and the workers can approach Industrial Court for their dues and ask for full salary till the dues are settled.
