Yes, Gratuity law has been loosened from 5 years to 4 years 240 / 190 days.
As per Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, any employees become eligible for the gratuity when he has completed five years service. However, The employee who has worked for 240 days in 5th year, can claim to complete 5 years completion with that organization.
