A. Dear Client,
Make an application before the Regional PF Commissioner stating the nature of the anomaly caused for the arbitrary action of the ex-employer endorsing a copy of the same to your ex-employer. If the matter is not resolved then reach out to an Advocate for filing an appeal before the PF Appellate Tribunal for redressal of your grievance.

A. Dear client,
A person is entitled to apply for the non-creamy OBC certificate if either of their parents is employed by the central government or falls under the Group C or Group D category. To find out whether you qualify for an OBC - NCL certificate or an OBC - Creamy layer certificate, however, you must ask the applicable caste certificate issuing body, such as DM/SDM/Tehsildar, if your parents' income surpasses the threshold limit of Rs. 8 lakhs per year.

A. Dear Client,
When you are holding the position of Manager of the Company, you cannot be treated as a workman as defined u/s.2(s) of the Industrial Dispute Act, 1947, and accordingly, you cannot seek the remedies available to a workman under the Act. In your case, you have to approach a Civil Court for recovery of Full and Final Settlement dues from the Company. Reach out to an Advocate for guidance and steps.
