Hi,
As advised earlier please file a case before the Assistant commissioner of Labour of your region. It is more than a year you got relieved (09 July 2018). Submit all the copy of correspondence took place between you and your employer.

Dear Sir,
Kindly suggest -
As I approached many times, company told me that they told have paid the LIC premium from last 2 years, and the company cannot raise the fund right now, as they are into financial crisis. They again told me that, you have till June 2020. We will do something. Earlier they told me to wait till Oct 2019.
What to do kindly tell me.
So Sorry, I asked many times. But the situations vary time to time.
Kindly suggest.
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Rashmi

Hi Rashmi,
Have already advised on this. Tie up with LIC Group Gratuity Scheme and late commencement of LIC Group Gratuity scheme can't be presented as a reason for late payment of Gratuity. Whether the employer pay Gratuity directly or through LIC Group Gratuity Scheme is employer choice but Gratuity has to be cleared within 30 days from the date of receipt of request application for Gratuity.
Better you file a case with Assistant Commissioner of Labour immediately and submit all relevant documents with him. Employer cannot evade unreasonably by asking more time before the Controlling Authority. Please don't delay further.
