Legal Information
Below is a comprehensive legal analysis based on Indian law for your question.
You can file a complaint before the Labor Commissioner in Kolkata under the Industrial Disputes Act for wrongful termination without notice or compensation. Under West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act 1997, if you are a workman, you can raise an industrial dispute before the Labor Court in West Bengal seeking reinstatement with back wages. If you are in a managerial role, you can file a civil suit for breach of contract for recovery of notice pay and damages. The court can order reinstatement or compensation depending on the nature of the termination. If the Labor Court's order is unfavorable, you can appeal to the Calcutta High Court under West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act 1997 within 90 days.
