There is some misunderstanding. It must be some other benifit. Gratuity is one time payment. If the same is not paid on the death of an eligible employee, his LRS can claim the same.

The employer cannot deny the death benefits such as Gratuity and pension to the employee concerned. You can file a claim against the employer in the concerned Labour Court as you have a good case.
