Dear ankur
As you have served for more than 5 years (continuous service) you are eligible for gratuity.
Even after the superannuation age you have been re-employed and you are serving the organization hence you are eligible for payment of gratuity.
Case law:
Jeewanlal (1929) Ltd VS
Let’s wait for replies for your other queries.
Best wishes

1.You are entitled for full gratuity upto the date of relief or termination
2.gratuity will be calculated on the salary last drawn.
3.The LIC will release the gratuity calculating your age or retirement to the employer. But the employers is bound to pay you the balance amount over and above the amount released by the LIC..
4.The Gratuity Act is suffice and no citaion is necessary for your case.

The LIC will terminate its Group Gratuity Cash accumulation scheme on retirement of the employee at the age of 60.But if the employer retains his his service, it is bound to give the gratuity thereafter from its own resources.
