Understanding Gratuity: How Long Must I Work and Does Notice Period Count?

veemahesh
I would like to know how many years or days I need to work in the same company to get gratuity. Does the notice period include in the gratuity calculation?

Thank you.

For eligibility to receive gratuity, you must work a minimum of 4 years and 240 days.

Thank you for the information. I just need a small clarification. Does it include holidays like Sunday and Saturday, leave taken, or actual working days?

Eligibility for Gratuity

It includes everything. An employee is eligible for gratuity once he/she completes 5 years of continuous service with one organization as per the Payment of Gratuity Act (± 6 months).
