Dear All,
An employee is entitled for gratuity only after serving 5 years of meritorious service .In this case if he is on the rolls of the company and should have worked 240 days in a year to enable him gratuity for that year. Any service in a year less than 240 days will disqualify him from getting gratuity. However, company is at liberty to consider this period.
Thanks,

Dear Ravi,
You are advised to see the trailing mail posted by Sh Mritunjay Nath Sahu where he has nicely explained that an employee borne on the muster rolls of the company should have worked 240 days in a year to enable him to earn gratuity for that year. Any service in a year less than 240 days will disqualify him from getting gratuity.
In view of the above, you need to calculate the numbers of days you have worked in each of the years including the last year of your service.

1) Gratuity shall be payable to an employee on the termination of his employment after he has rendered continuous service for not less than five years, -
(a) on his superannuation, or
(b) on his retirement or resignation, or
(c) on his death or disablement due to accident or disease:
Provided that the completion of continuous service of five years shall not be necessary where the termination of the employment of any employee is due to death or disablement:
Hence it is clear that only in case of death of disablement the condition of 5 years service does not apply.
If the employee has worked for 240 days in 5 th year then also he will entitled for gratuity even if he has not completed 5 years.
