You can lodge a complaint to the labour commissioner under payment of wages act, if your wages are less than 18000/- per month.
Labour commissioner will take action and make your employer to pay your salary with interest.
Its employer's responsibility that employees should get paid within 7th of every month, if their employee strength is less than 1000.
Even though they say that the performance is very low, they should pay the minimum wages at minimum. They cannot hold entire salary as low performance.
If you raise a complaint, that will be a lesson to your employer to follow the rules. You should send complaint letter with proper proof's.
