Mr. Ashish: You are entitled to get the gratuity from the initial date of joining of service. The Payment of Gratuity Act clearly provides that Gratuity shall be payable to an employee on the termination of his employment after he has rendered continuous service for not less than five years. Whereas the contract as arrived between you and your company is concerned the provisions of the Act having overriding effect on any other enactment inconsistance with the provisoins of the Gratuity Act or over any instrument or contract. In view of the above matter, you should approach the Controlling Authority appointed under the Payment of Gratuity Act having the territorial jurisdiction.
