Your claim appears to be genuine. However, the amount may be very small as compared to the litigation cost. You may first try to sort out the matter by submitting representation to the higher authorities. If you do not succeed, you may examine the possibility of filing a petition before CENTRAL ADMINISTRATIVE TRIBUNAL if BHEL is a notified employer covered under the Act. Otherwise, you may consider filing a civil suit for recovery of your dues.

Usually a cut off date is fixed. Unfortunately, as you have retired the day before the vesting date, you are not eligible.
