Gratuity Eligibility: Does My Notice Period Count Towards the 5-Year Requirement?

Sir, I joined the present company on 09.03.2018. Am I eligible for gratuity if I complete 5 years of service, including the notice period?

Hi, to be eligible for gratuity, completing 5 years of service, including the notice period, will be sufficient.

Hello, your employment will be counted until the last day of your employment. However, in some cases, to avoid paying the gratuity amount, the employer may waive the notice period. Be prepared to deal with such situations.

Gratuity Calculation
Gratuity is calculated as = Last drawn (Basic + DA) x 15/26 x Service Years with the current employer.
