Gratuity Payment Process According to the Gratuity Act
Section 4(1)(2)(3) of the Gratuity Act requires that gratuity shall be paid to an employee upon the termination of their employment after they have rendered continuous service for not less than five years. Rules 7 and 8 of the Gratuity rules require that an employee who is eligible for the payment of gratuity shall apply for it within thirty days from the date the gratuity becomes payable, using Form I to the employer. Within fifteen days of receiving an application under Rule 7 for the payment of gratuity, the employer shall issue a notice in Form L to the applicant employee, nominee, or legal heir, as the case may be. This notice will specify the amount of gratuity payable and fix a date, not later than the thirtieth day after the receipt of the application, for payment.
