Gratuity is not necessarily a mention on the offer letter.
It is an act. When the number of employees cross the minimum level mentioned in the act, the company automatically will be governed by it.
And when an employee continuously works in the same company for 4y & 240 days, employee becomes eligible to exercise the benefits of the gratuity act.
