Dear Mr Dineshpillai If he had worked for 4 years 5 months and 15 days, he would not have completed 240 days during the last year and therefore will not be entitled to get gratuity. With regards

Harikrishnan Sir’s reply is the correct rule. The employee needs to have worked for 240 days in the fifth year to be eligible.

Dear Challagolla,
Any employee who has completed 4 years and 240 days is eligible for gratuity as per the Different High Courts and Supreme Court. 240 days working in an year makes it a whole year of service as per the Law of Land.

From India, New Delhi
As per the Madras High Court judment (1998 LLR 1072) if a person works for 4 years and 10 motnhs, he would have completed 5 continuous years of service (assuming he worked for 240 days in the preceding 12 months) and the person would certainly be entitled to Gratuity. In case he is working in an establishment that is working 5 days a week, instead of 240 days, you would need to factor in 190 days as the basis for deciding completed year of service. Days on which he was sick or on authorised leave would also be counted as days worked. A person having worked for 4 years and six months (less than 240/190 days) would certainly not be eligible to Gratuity.
