I resigned from the organization one month ago and completed one month of the three-month notice period. My appointment letter states that "In special circumstances, employees can pay the notice period." So, I asked my employer if I could pay for the next two months. However, they insisted that I complete the full three-month notice period, which was not feasible for me as I had a new opportunity lined up. After finishing one month of the notice period, I informed my superiors via email that I would not be coming in from the following day and ceased going to the office.
Now, they are not responding to my emails when I inquire about the full and final settlement letter and the relieving letter. What should I do? I have all the email correspondence related to my resignation.

Your action is actually unprofessional. The facts are as below (just to ensure that we are on the same page):
First - you have a 3-month notice period that you agreed to when you joined the company.
Second - your appointment letter states that in special circumstances, the employee may be allowed to pay in lieu of the notice period.
Third - you asked for early relieving, but it was denied.
Fourth - you didn't even complete the 3-month period; one fine day, you sent an email saying you would not come from the next day.
In these circumstances, it would be quite surprising if the management actually bothers to give you a settlement. They should instead initiate legal action against you for breach of contract.

Special circumstance for me is that they have declare the separation of my division from the company and want to sign the new agreement with us. I don’t want to go there so I resigned.

I don't see how that qualifies as a special circumstance. The wording of the appointment letter must have been in a manner that gives discretion to the management. Apparently, they don't believe this is a special circumstance. Even then, you were asked for 2 months' notice, and after a month, you stopped going without any handover. My comments remain the same.
