Dear Jitendra
Even employee is terminated on completion of 4 years of service than also he is not eligible for gratuity.5 years of service is must to get entitle for gratuity.
As our friend has written 4 yr 6 month is absolutely worng.

Dear Seniors,
As per my understanding if a person completes 4 years and 240 days service he is eligible for gratuity.

As per the Act an employee who worked for 5 years in an organisation, is eligible for gratuity.
As per Madras High Court Decision, an employee, who worked for four year and more than 240 days in fifth year, the employee is eligible for gratuity, taking into consideration of the definition of continuous service of one year as per Factories Act.
Terminated employee is also eligible for gratuity unless his services were terminated as detailed under section 4 (6) of the Gratuity Act.

no he is not entitled because he has not completed 5 yrs of service. Again in the above case his 4 yrs tenure should be totally employee and not trainee and then employee
