Madras High Court Judgment
Refer to the Madras High Court judgment [Mettur Beardshel]; it states that 4 years and 240 days in the last year make workers eligible for gratuity, not only 5 full years.
Special Conditions for Gratuity Eligibility
If you are disabled (partial/permanent), you do not need to qualify for the 5-year rule. The same applies to matters of death. It also includes the legal strike period, lockout, and legal layoff period, which are not due to the employee's fault.
In gratuity, we consider 26 days for 1 month of work. It's not that 1 month has a 26-day working period; that's not the logic. In other statutes, we consider 30 days.
