After 16 years of service I resigned from my company. Its a Pvt.Ltd firm having office in Delhi and Kochi. I was in Delhi office. At the time of my exit there are 4 staff in Delhi and I am not sure about Kochi office staff strength. During my tenure there times more 20 staffs were there in both the office.
When I sent Form I for my gratuity, management sent me letter saying I am not eligible for gratuity in view of the provisions of section 1(3) of Gratuity Act 1972.
Is it right ? Kindly help me.

Your Employer is wrong. You are eligible for gratuity since in some point of time your company have more than 10 employees. SO you can legally approach the court designated for it. You have to approach the court after 30 days of resignation and you are eligible to get the gratuity with interest of 12%.
