I had worked in a company for 11 years. After leaving the organization, the company received the sanction letter and gratuity amount from LIC under the Group Gratuity Scheme. However, due to some personal grudges, the gratuity amount has not been paid to me. The company received the amount in Feb 2016 from LIC.

What recourse is available in this situation?

The company can't have any personal grudge.

Write a reminder to the company under acknowledgment. Then, if no action is taken, write a complaint to the labor officer, informing them of the whole matter, stating that the amount from LIC has been received but is being held up in the company.

It is a matter of time; the company will have to pay you.

The payment of gratuity dues is a legal requirement. Whether the money comes from LIC or not is immaterial. So, you need to file an application for gratuity (Form I or J). If the company does not pay within 30 days, you need to complain to the gratuity authority (generally the Labour Commissioner of the area).
