A. Hi,
Generally the company takes 45 days to settle the full and final settlement of payment and relieving letter. What you could do is to ask the company to provide you with relieving letter first and could do the final settlement in the 45 days. If they don't provide with the same within 45 days, you could send them a legal notice claiming the same.
Thanks.
