No communication for about a year is not correct. If there is a HR Team the organisation must be reasonably big. HR must have communicated within one month the status indicating the amount payable or receivable.Many HR Managers think that if there is a dispute, silence will help and the employee will vanish. It is not a correct practice.
Your friend can send a complaint to the following
1. Payment of wages authority
2. Concerned inspector ( Inspector of Factories or Labour Inspector under Shops and Establishment Act)
3. Send a copy of the complaint to Chief Inspector of Factories or Chief Labour Commissioner
4. Mark a copy to Secretary Labour Departemnt
Wait for a month. If nothing works, initiate action under Payment of Wages Act ( if your wage is within the prescribed limit under the Act)

Your employer is legally bound to make full and final settlement of your outstanding dues after your release from the said Organisation.They are duty bound to release CPF and Gratuity within 30 days from the due date subject to your submission of withdrwal application form to them .Remaining dues should also be released within a reasonable time.In case they are not released in time, you may lodge a formal complaint against them to the Grievance Officer of their Administrative Ministry with a copy to the Labour Secy.You may also lodge a Complaint before the concerned Regional PF Commissioner for CPF and to the concerned ALC & CA for Gratuity.After giving reasonable opportunity for hearing to both sides,they will pass necessary orders.It is your fundamental right to claim Gratuity and PF after your retirement.

Yes. I agree with Mr Moitra. While full and final settlement is required to be released immediately on separation, PF & Gratuity(minimum rendering of service for 5 years) to be effected within 1 month of submission of requisite formats
