For how many days employer like TCS, Infosys etc can keep employee without paying anything due to several reasons or may be due to some conflict and still consider them their employee, scenario where employee all access from company including office e-mail access gets revoked not paid anything for months , HR starts ignoring e-mails over e-mails HR not ready to reply simple question clarifying the employment status, how long they can continue like this? if someone remains for long time can he consider himself to be eligible to withdraw his PF under this situation if this happens for more than 3 months without salary?

A.Hi,
This would depend on the terms of your employment contract.
However, you can serve them with legal notice and then sue for breach pf contract.
