Dear Sachin,

A personal visit to the Company and meeting the CEO / MD to discuss and sort out the matter across the table, is advisable and recommended. If the outstanding amount is not immediately settled post your discussion with the Company, request for one current dated cheque (50% outstanding amount) and two Post Dated Cheque(s) (balance 50% outstanding amount). Stay in Orissa till the first cheque realizes and is credited to your A/c. If it bounces or is dishonoured, immediately lodge a local Police NC (Non-cognizable) complaint in the name of the CEO / MD of the Company. Withhold all Company goods lying with you in your custody till all your dues are settled. Proceed to file a recovery suit under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1938 against the Company.

Regards,
