Some court rulings have made it not necessary for a person to complete five years to receive gratuity. Therefore, this employee can be eligible for gratuity. Furthermore, if your company has covered its employees in the LIC group gratuity scheme, even five years may not be necessary in the case of death.

Dear,

Yes, definitely he shall be eligible for gratuity under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Any employee who has completed 4 years and 240 days (continuous service) shall be eligible for gratuity.

In case of death, any employee who has completed even six months of service shall be eligible for gratuity.

Dear All,

One of our staff has completed 5 years and left the organization, but for the first two years, he was a trainee. He later joined the company's payroll and became eligible for all company benefits (e.g., Bonus/PF/ESIC, etc.).

During the trainee period, there were no deductions from his monthly salary; it was a consolidated payment. Does he qualify for gratuity benefits from his trainee period?

Hi,

Since the individual was a staff member only after getting on the payroll, he is not eligible for gratuity for the trainee period. I am considering that during the trainee period, he was either paid a stipend or was on a third-party/vendor payroll.
