SajhaKeto,
First I would like to tell you not to be sacred. You have not committed any crime here, you have right to choose any employer and right to quit job any time.
Second there is not only bad things going to happen to you only but to the consultancy as well if you both decide to go to court. There are plenty of things done by consultancy that they worry about too.
Third lets discuss your situation. If I understood correct there are several layers of vendors involved between ur ex-employer and client. let's say
A is your employer
B is one layer
C is prime Vendor
D is Client.
There is never any relation between D and A, C and A or D and B or any contracts. Your employer deals with only one layer ahead of it. So with which layer you signed non-competent contract.? In most case if you had any non-competent contract signed that will be between consecutive layer. In your case between A and B. Now If you are working for B then your non-competence contract comes into effect, if you are not working for B then you can say F*** u to your ex-employer.
If you are working for B then you need to act smart. Avoiding phone calls or communication does not get you out of the mess. So you need to communicate with them via email ( so that you have all the proofs in case you need them in future). Try to less communicate over the phone or record the conversion ( but need to let them know some way that you are recording the conversation). Try to communicate in most professional way. And have good employee right attorney if required.
P.S: Above is not a legal advise.
