If gratuity lies with LIC, then LIC will be liable to pay gratuity up to only 60 years of age, and the claim will be settled accordingly. A 2-year extension to the employee can be settled with mutual discussion between employer and employee only.

It is possible to collect the gratuity amount at the age of 60 from the LIC and keep the amount in the trust account for the time being. Then, after two years when the employee is relieved from service, calculate the gratuity payable for the entire period based on the salary at the time of exit at 62 years of age. Pay the amount by two separate cheques, one from the trust account and the other one from the general account.
