Clarity between gratuity eligibility service (5 or 4.8 yrs)?

The establishment works for how many days/week;6 or less than 6?

All off days/holidays etc are counted in 190/240days.

Have you submitted FormI?

Count from DOJ till LWD.

Dear sir,

I have a query on gratuity eligibility, kindly help me... I work for an construction company and i have resigned from my post and currently am in the notice period. After I got to know from this page that, if employee has served continous for 240 days in the 5th year, he is eligible for gratuity amount. I have spoken this with my HR, but he refused that, only after completion for 5 years , I am elgible for gratuity amount , Later he said to me that, if you have any recent ammended judgement from supreme courth or ammended notification from Gratuity ACT to share or circulate with him, so that HR can take forward the same with my company management.

I also have another confusion that, there was a discussion that, employee is elligible for gratuity amount if he has served for 4 years 10 months 18 days. now whats this difference between 240 days and 4 years 10 months 18 days ???

Pl clarify and also I request you to share with us, if there is any recent ammended copy or judgement available, if yes, where we can get that copy.

Kindly suggest and help

The Payment of Gratuity Act,1972 is a statue and it is inserted in the statue that if employee has worked for 190/240 days per year and 190/240 days in 5th year employee is eligible.

It is also provided for that if 'ANYONE' avoids to pay Gratuity there is provision of penalty of Rs.20000/ and imprisionment.

Dear Sir,

I have completed 4 years 11 month in my current Organisation. Now I just want to resign by giving Short Notice Period of 15 Days. As per company policy, Notice period to adhered for 30 Days.

So please tell me short notice period of 15 days or less will not hamper to my Gratuity calculation. 

Please clarify this Sir.

Thanks & Regards

Hi, I have a doubt.. Regarding gratuity eligibility.

I joined in the company on 09.01.2012 and resigned on 01.08.2016 + (1 month notice period). my company works 5 days a week. 

Am i eligible for the gratuity?

Please reply for my query.

The similar query has been dicussed unlimited number of times.

Notice period is counted in service period.

By the end of notice period you shuld be completing: 04Y07M022D

Since the establishment works for <6days /week, if you complete 04Y in service and 190days in 5th year you should be eligible.

RespectedSir,

I am Hanish Vohra, I have completed 4.9 years in IT company (5 days per week). My company is saying i am not elligible for Gratutity because I didn't complete 5 years. I discussed regarding 4 year 8 month policy but they are saying that is govt rule and our company is private and it's come under private trust so you are not elligible and one more thing In offer letter also they mention they will give gratutiy after completion of 5 years.

Please suggest me. Whether I am elligible for Gratutity or not,

The query has been discussed unlimited number of times in this thread and other threads.

IT companies are covered by Shops & Estbs Act, and Gratuity Rules of such estbs are  covered by Payment of Gratuity Act,1972.

So you are eligible.

Saying,asking.telling are all verbal modes and difficult to prove.

Write under proper acknowledgment that 'Notice of Determination of Gratuity' and payment of Gratuity has not been supplied to you, and FormI is attached and ask to acknowledge the reciept.

Some employees resolve by their own skills.

Or take support and help of many IT/ITeS employe's unions/trade unions.

Or lean on a very able counsel specializing in labor/service matters.
