Dear Karvig12, As your service is more than 5 years, you are eligible for gratuity claim. Abbas.P.S

As per gratuity rule one need to serve 240 days in each year to avail the benefit. I hope that in the last five year you have served 240 days in each year.

Dear Karvig12 Gratuity is applicable once you complete 4 years and 240 days in the fifth year . so You are eligible for the same.

Notice period/Probation period and for that any period is counted in service period...........

Your eligibility is from Date of Joining to date of leaving...........

As per Payment of Gratuity Act 1972; Sec2A;;;;;;;

If establishment works for 5days/week :::::::employee should have worked for 190days/year

If establishment works for more than 5days/week :::::::employee should have worked for 240days/year

If employee has worked form more than 6 months it shall be counted as 1year

All weekly off days/holidays are counted in this period....

The similar issue has been discussed in detail in following threads and employees those persist succeed:

Dear Friends,
I regrete to vote to remove the response of Gaurir & S S Rawat. The forum has discussed on many occasions on applicability of payment of Gratuity as per POG Act. Gratuity is payable only on completion of 5 years continuous service. One can take benefit of Madras HC judgement, but mind well, this judgement is not having a force out of it's jurisdiction.
My humble request to the members of the forum that they should make study before posting any thing so their posts should not be misguiding / misleading.

Dear Ddiaba,
You need to study the jurisdiction and powers of courts in India and its binding effects as given by our Constitution. It is subject itself.
What I studied in Law and what I remember now is that the decision of one high court is not having binding precedence for another high court. It has a binding precedence in its own State or territory.
May I know why you asked the question? Do you have any doubt on it? If it is so, please initiate a discussion by members so that we can get correct answer. Why I am saying it, I read somewhere, though legally judgment of another High Court is not a binding precedent, has no application in respect of interpretation of Central Statutes.

I have a question, as Gratuity is a part of CTC and it get deducted from the salary every month and if the employee leaves before 5 years...for example the employee resign within 3 years is he eligible to withdraw his Gratuity? (the Gratuity amount is mention on his CTC copy !
