Hi, Good Morning All. Can anyone suggest the following case? One of our employees died while in service at the age of 54. Should we calculate his gratuity until the closure of his service (retirement) or until the date of death? It will be really helpful if anyone can guide me in this matter.
Thanks & Regards, Nethra. K

The legal requirement is to pay gratuity by calculating the period of service until the date of death. If you pay up to the date of retirement, the extra amount paid will be a voluntary benefit extended by you.
