In the case of death, the service conditions attached to the payment of gratuity will not be applicable. Therefore, you should pay gratuity considering a service of one year, amounting to 15 days' salary. If you have opted for any death cum gratuity scheme, please forward the matter to the insurer.
In the event that the death occurred due to an accident during employment, the dependents should receive compensation as mandated by the Employees' Compensation Act. If the deceased was covered by ESI, notify the ESI about the accident and subsequent death. The ESIC will manage the compensation process.
