First of all, you can write an application to the employer for the pending salary, and if he does not reply, you can send a legal notice and give him a time period to pay your salary, and if he does not pay, then you can file a complaint to the labor tribunal under the payment of wages act.

If your salary has not been credited for 6 months, send a formal notice to your employer requesting the pending payment. If the issue persists, file a complaint with the Labor Commissioner under the Payment of Wages Act, 1936. If unresolved, you can take legal action by filing a case in the Labor Court for recovery of unpaid wages. Consulting a labor lawyer can help you with legal guidance and drafting necessary notices.
