Are you a HR person in Indian Navy? In what way gratuity eligibility is linked to retirement age? If an employee is in continuous service for 5 yrs, he is entitled for gratuity. Pon

Dear Mr. Rao,
Please refer to the Payment of Gratuity Act for the exact comprehension of the act.
As per the act an Employee is eligible for receiving gratuity only if he is separated from the organisation and prior to his separation he has been in continuous service with the same organisation for not less than 5 years.
Therefore, the criteria of retirement or otherwise is immaterial. But completion of 5 years and separation thereafter is important.
Trust you will get your answer as above.
Regards,
Sidhesh Bandodkar.

Dear Friend,
The concerned employee has served for more than 5 years on continuous basis and as such he is eligible for Gratuity under the Gratuity Act. The payment of Gratuity is no way connected with retirement age.
I am in agreement with the views given by other colleagues in this regard.

Dear friend, The question raised by you is of elementary nature, I wish you could go through the Payment of Gratuity Act. Even now it is not too late, this will help you in the long run. S.K.Johri

Apart from what seniors has advised you with regards to Gratuity, I could not understand your query, you say as per company policy retirement age is 60 years so the employee is supposed to retire in Feb 2007 as his DOB is 10/2/1947, instead you say that the employee had served your company upto 31/3/14 which is yet to come and as per the calculation he has worked more than 7 years after his/her retirement age i.e. 67 years.
