A.Dear Client,
Engaging in misappropriation of an employer's or company's property can result in severe legal consequences, including termination from employment. Moreover, if the company withholds your salary upon resignation, there are legal remedies available to recover the withheld amount. It's important to note that withholding salary or Full and Final (F&F) dues without a valid or cogent reason is considered an unfair labor practice on the part of the company.
However, it's crucial to emphasize that taking the law into your own hands or engaging in any form of retaliation may lead to adverse consequences for you. Instead, it is recommended to explore legal avenues to address the issue. If necessary, consider seeking the assistance of an advocate who can navigate the matter in the correct legal manner. By pursuing appropriate legal remedies, you can work towards recovering your withheld salary without exposing yourself to additional legal risks.

A.Dear Client,
Misappropriation with the employers/company's property makes you liable to face legal consequences including termination from service apart from claiming damage to the company's database. When the company withholds your salary on resignation, there are legal remedies in place to recover your salary from the employer/company because withholding of salary or F & F dues of an employee in the absence of any valid or cogen reason, is considered unfair labour practice on the part of the company. But since you have already taken the law into your hands, you should be prepared to face the consequences. If required, based on the situation you may hire the service of an Advocate to navigate the matter in the right way.
