It is difficult to give an answer when lots of information is missing.
What position are you holding, what work you are doing makes a difference.
But most important is how the handover happened from one contractor to the other.
Based in that, we can give a better answer

Basic+DA)/26*15*No. of years
If in a year person has worked for>6 month it may be counted as a whole year.

Dear SKumar ji,
You are working with same PE since past 11 years continuously but under different different agencies.
According to me the contracts which your PE enters in-to with various contractors every year or periodically and keeping same employees through out the years continuously under all those contractors can be declared as shame.
Also SC in RK Panda (1994 LLR634) it was held that the PE should absorb the CLs engaged under different contractors with him for past 10 years.
My advise to you, you should make your case, apply for Gratuity from 2003 onwards in prescribed form to you PE. If the PE rejects your application or does not take any action, go with legal process. Hire a good lawyer.
Wish you a good luck.

If the service is regular with record i.e. with appointment order and payment details since 5 years from the employer, you can claim for gratuity. Gratuity can be claimed by giving simple letter to your employer stating the date of joining and date leaving and the last drawn salary.

Neither Kumar nor Mahem has stated whether there is termination of employment of the persons concerned as on date. Gratuity can be claimed only on termination of employment. In the case of Kumar, if the allegation about change of actual contractor is true, I would also view the arrangement "sham" as opined by Mr KorGaOnkar. However, still the contract is in the name of the initial manpower supplier, Kumar can stake his claim for gratuity against both the PE and the dejure contractor.

Gratuity is not listed amongst the responsibilities of the principal employer in the act.
What is listed is wages and statutory dues of PF and ESI. So can he actually claim gratuity against the principal employer?

Dear Saswata ji,
What you said is correct. But I would like to draw your kind attention to High Court Madras W.P. 6633/2008 and MP Nos. 1/2008 & 1/2009 decided on 18.07.2012 : Mettur Thermal Power Station Vs. Appeate Authority - Jt. Commissioner of Labour, Coimbatore.
In this case Contractor's liability to pay Gratuity is fasterned on Principal Employer.
