Hi,
I worked for a company in Hyderabad for 5 years, and the company is now not willing to pay my gratuity. I have been following up for the last year, but the finance team has been dragging things by saying they will pay after audits and discussions with management. Finally, I have come to the conclusion that they are not interested in paying. I want to file a complaint with the labor department. Can anyone guide me through the process of filing a complaint with the labor department to claim my gratuity?

Payment of Gratuity Act
The Payment of Gratuity Act applies to factories, mines, plantations, oil fields, and ports. The Act applies to other establishments like shops and commercial establishments only if the number of employees (during any day in 12 months) is not less than 10.
Now, if your establishment is a covered establishment, you can send a gratuity claim to the company in Form I (the first part of the attached form) and wait for the response from the company. If you do not receive any communication (preferably in Form L), you can seek the intervention of the Labour Officer by submitting Form N (the second part of the attachment). The Officer will summon the employer and do the needful for you.
