I worked with Capgemini India for 4 years and 238 days. The date of joining was 01 April 2013, and the date of release was 24th November 2017. I resigned from Capgemini on the 14th of November and was released on the 24th. I bought out the notice period of 59 days by paying around 2 lakh rupees because the new opportunity I received required early joining.
Gratuity Eligibility Query
Now, Capgemini is stating that I am not eligible for gratuity because I didn't complete 4 years and 240 days. Can you please advise if I am not eligible, and if I am, what does the law specifically state regarding the number of days worked to be eligible for the gratuity amount? Is it strictly 4 years and 240 days? I am only short by 2 days, so are there any exceptions?

Please note that I have buyout the notice period. Is that notice period considered as employment because, I have already charged money?

This 2 days makes all the difference. You may not be able to get gratuity from the company.

I heard there is clause which says, 5 days week working companies need to consider 180 days as 1 year. Is that not applicable to me as Capgemini also works for 5 days a week?
