As per the notification, fixed-term employees are entitled to receive gratuity proportionate to the period of service rendered, even if their employment does not reach the 5-year mark. This means that if a fixed-term employee has completed a certain period of service, they are eligible for gratuity based on that duration, in line with the statutory benefits available to permanent employees. Therefore, gratuity would be applicable to fixed-term employees based on the duration of their service, as specified in the rules.
