Hi Pintu, your employer should consider you for gratuity.

Hi Shyam,

Eligibility for Gratuity

4.6 years of service is not eligible for gratuity. As per Section 4 of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, an employee will become eligible for gratuity on completion of continuous service of 5 years only. The 6-month criteria you are referring to is meant only for the purpose of computation of gratuity for the subsequent year.
