I have been working with an IT company of strength 15 since the past 5 yrs. Now I have resigned from my services and would like to know if I am entitled to gratuity. My employers say in case of IT companies it is not a compulsory provision, and hence they do not provide for the same. Need advice/ notes on the same, or would like references from books that say so. I am not sure whom to approach about this problem. Thanks
