If you have completed 240 working days in the last year, i.e. from March 2012 to January 2013, then you are eligible for gratuity. As per the Payment of Gratuity Act, an employee is eligible for gratuity only after completing five years. However, there have been many judgments given by High Courts from time to time stating that an employee is eligible for gratuity if they have completed 240 days of work in the last year of their service.

Hi Anuj Trivedi Sir,

Thank you for the valuable reply. Yes, sir, I have completed almost 9 months, approximately 270 days, in my 5th year. On which act can I get my gratuity? Can you explain so I can check with my HR team?

Thanks in advance.

Yes sudhakar.. 240 Days should be excluding sundays and Holidays. The definition also says that continuous service of 5 Years and a minimum of 240 days in every year. RK

Dear Sudhakar, Since Saturday is not considered as Holiday or weekly off, this should be considered as working day. Regards, RK
