Legal Question in Employment Law in India

I left my organisation on Dec 02, 2009, after serving a notice period of one month as per the company policy. At the time of leaving, despite of my request, nobody took the handover from me.
Then I handed over company�s belongings to my junior and took receiving of the same and sent scanned copy to HR at HO.
As per company policy the F&F gets done within 45 days but i have not received the F&F till yet. Apart from my one month�s salary, company also owe to me the travel expense which i incurred for official purpose. On requesting for F&F, every time they came up with some or other query and delayed the F&F.
When i repeatedly requested for full & final then company said that some of the equipment say projector worth Rs. 40K is missing from the office and i will have to pay for them. Whereas at the time of leaving the organisation no such issue was there. Even in Audit, which was done by HO team, no such information brought to my notice while working with the company.
Moreover they are deducting this amount under the head of INCOME TAX deduction. Isn�t it unlawful.
It is more than 3 months that Full & final settlement is not done.
Pl. Advise, how to take it forward.
Regards,
R. Kumar

Try to settle the matter out of court. The litigation route may be costly and time consuming.
