I agree with Mr.KCS Kutty,
In the light of the discussion and clarification, it is advisable to pay the gratuity subject to the the satisfaction of 'five continuous years of service'.

What Mr. A.Irudayam, Advocate and HR consultant, has posted on Mon, Feb 09, 2009, is the correct statement in the given circumstances. His legal observation is correct. The concerned employee is entitled for Gratuity even though he has not worked till the end of 60 calendar months.

Sir in the PG Act nothing has been mentioned for such situation, but it is cleared that continuous service means 12 calender month hence in my opinion it will not be appropriate to consider the demand of employee.

Hi All,

I have one doubt related to Gratuity Payable. I need clarification if someone knows answer. Let’s assume employee completes 5 yrs of service with company but when he completes 5 yrs of service if he is servicing notice period then in this case is he eligible for Gratuity

Thanks,

Dear Pramod

4 years and 240 working days are only mentioned and not that 240 days.

That means 4 years 9 months and 1 week service is minimum requirement for those organisation working weekly 6 days, i.e., weekly off must be excluded from that 240 days.

Hence whoever completed 4 years and 8 months are not eligible for Gratuity.

Dear Anil

The training period, Probation Period, Orientation Programme period and any other period whatever it may be, if the person engaged by your company means he is eligible for Gratuity, if he serves for more than 5 years period.
