No, you should not pay the alleged fee pertaining to 2014.  They are also not  entitled to demand the said money for  the simple reason that your Daughter did not attend the school during the relevant period and that, they cannot demand payment after lapse of more than 5 years.

File a specific performance suit against the company for getting your salary.

File a complaint against the school in affiliating authority 

Dear Sir/Madam,

You are suggested that you have 02 separate queries here. The advice to the first query is that serve a legal notice to the employer/company management to give you payments and relieving letter and if not given by them, file the case in the labour court.

In the second case, just refuse the claim of the school by serving the legal notice and citing the reasons of limitations and time barred.  

This action of theirs is against the contractual obligations imposed on both the parties. A legal notice must be sent to the employers and if they do not respond then file a case against them in the labour court.

Since you came back and joined rgem that is why they are pressuring you into giving the money. You have no obligations towards them as far as the previous fee is concerned.

- As per Specific Relief Act, if any employee quits before the notice period, the Employer can only recover the Notice pay, and the Company cannot force to serve the entire notice period.

- Further, the resignation decision is the employee’s decision, and the employer cannot sue for breach of contract, if the employee leaves without serving contractual notice. 

- Further, no employer can refused to return the original certificates or to issue relieving letter .If they are doing so, their act is illegal, unjustified and against the fundamental rights of the employee.

- Further, the employment bond with the negative covenant is valid and legally enforceable, if the parties agree with their free consent i.e. without force, coercion, undue influence, misrepresentation and mistake, but it is not enforceable, if it is either one sided, unconscionable or unreasonable.

- Further, section 27 of the Indian Contract Act prohibits any agreement in restraint of trade and profession.

- Hence, better serve the notice period only , and tender your resignation with the request of issue Relieving Letter , and payment of settlement amount .

- If no response, then send a legal demand notice to the company. 

You may go through the conditions imposed in the employment offer letter.

If there is any clause stating that on submitting your resignation, the company may relieve you at its discretion waiving the service of notice period, then you cannot agitate over this early relieving.

However if you still want to send a legal notice demanding your salary mentioning your willingness to work for the full notice period, you may send the same through an advocate.

The reduction of salary during covid-19 period is common across the globe, hence how far your protest demanding full salary may be fruitful to you, but this will not prevent you from taking legal steps to recover your full salary.

You can refuse to pay the old dues now demanded by the school authorities for the following reasons:

1. it is barred by limitation;

2. There is no reason to demand the old dues at this stage especially when you have got your child admitted to the school second time after many years, this is an act of injustice or an act of illegal extortion.

Dear Client,

You have to send company a Legal Notice demanding the Three Month Salary and Relieving Letter.

you will have to issue a legal notice

if they dont reply positively then please file a suit

1. You shall have to file a Money Suit claiming the said unpaid amount with interest, damage and cost.

2. You can also lodge a complaint to the local labour commissioner in this regard.

1. This is a fresh query on a different topic.

2. The school can not ask the fees for the year 2014 since you had withdrawn your daughter from that school and got her admitted to a new school. The school should take fees for the period of her next admission.

if the employer denies to pay you your full and final settlement then you can send him a legal notice demanding the said payment and if he still denies then, you can file a recovery suit in the civil court

Any claims or action beyond the statutory limitation period is barred by limitation

1. You can file suit for recovery of dues against your employer after sending a legal notice for recovery of pending salary.

2. No you dont have to pay any dues for 2014 because you send them letter for withdrawal of admission.

Send this company a legal notice through a lawyer, calling upon they to do the full and final settlement in your favour; and their upon clear the dues admissible to you.
