An employee of a company died at the age of 50 after completing 20 years of service. Unfortunately, the company do not have a LIC linked Gratuity Policy.
Is the company liable to pay gratuity for 20 years of service or 28 yrs including service up to the age of retirement?

Irrespective of whether the company has linked up with LIC for the Gratuity, the company is liable to pay the Gratuity to the nominee of the deceased employee. As per the act, if no nomination has been made, then the gratuity will be payable to the deceased employee's heirs, and where any such nominees or heirs is a minor the shares of such minor, shall be deposited with the controlling authority who shall invest the same for the benefit of such minor in such bank or other financial institution, as may be prescribed, until such minor attains majority.
The company is liable to pay gratuity for 20 years if the deceased employee had completed 20 years of service with your establishment.
Cheers, A.B.
