Dear Sethu, you are correct. I have one doubt. If the employee has worked more than 5 years of regular service and is to be terminated by disciplinary action, does it mean that he is eligible for getting gratuity or not? Please explain the state policy.

Dear Sukumar Ji,
If the employee is compulsorily retired with all terminal benefits, he is eligible for payment of gratuity. It is considered a mild punishment. The employee loses the remaining services but retains the benefits of past services. However, if he is dismissed, he loses the gratuity altogether. Therefore, please refer to the termination order for eligibility for gratuity.

Dear Mr. Khola,
Is there any exemption under Gratuity? For example, if an employee has worked for 25 years and at the time of leaving his/her Basic Salary was Rs. 30 thousand, then as per the Gratuity Act (for Pvt. Ltd. co.), his/her gratuity would be approximately Rs. 4,32,692. Would he/she receive the said amount or any other amount according to the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.

Dear Khola ji,
Is there any provision in the depth of payment of gratuity act, 1972, that considers any type of short entitlement for the service?
One of my acquaintances had resigned from his position when he was close to completing his 5th year of continuous service. He resigned after completing 4 years and 11 months in the role.
Thanks,

Dear Neeraj,
According to the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, an employee must complete five years of continuous service with the same employer. However, as per the judgment of the Hon'ble Madras High Court, an employee is entitled to receive gratuity upon completing 240 days of service in the fifth year. Members have repeatedly referenced this judgment to inform others, so please review it to address your query conclusively. I trust that the Controlling Authorities in the Gurgaon area under the PG Act are also taking this judgment into consideration when determining gratuity matters.

It is mandatory to complete 5 years at first instance. Then, one has to put in 240 days every year to be paid. If someone does not complete 240 days, he/she cannot claim gratuity for that year.
