SIR/MADAM,
I HAVE A SERVICE OF 13 YEARS IN GOVT. ORG AND I HAVE RESIGNED THE JOB WILL I GET GRATUITY?
R.Ramachandran (Advocate) 26 October 2010
Resignation entails forfeiture of past service. If you have resigned then the 13years service rendered by you might have been forfeited. Therefore the question of payment of any gratuity does not arise.
Sarvendra Kumar Singh (Ex Senior Manager) 26 October 2010
Yes any employee is entitled to get gratuity after his 10 years service as per Payment of Gratuity Act,1972. It can be forefieted only in followintg circumstances:
1. If services are terminated, the gratuited shall be forefieted upto the loss quantified by the employer.
