Hello Friends,
I have a query WRT gratuity payment.
What is the rule on the payment of gratuity for an employee who had been transferred within a group company and now if he decides to quit the group after serving for 3 years and 2 years with parent company?
Is he entitled for gratuity or will it be considered as a new company?

Dear Mr Govind,
I agree with your view but my efforts to convince MGMT has been futile as they say that the companies that they have been transfered does not state of being a sister or group company, So effectively they would not be entitled for gratuity.
Is there any workaround to prove to the MGMT that they are wrong?

Dear Friend,
If you have transferred the employee with your sister concern, you are liable to pay the gratuity, where you are maintaining the gratuity registers? Need more clarification you can call me

I think Mr chaitany has potrayed the case very well. The transfer letter has been issued by the HR Director and states that the other terms and conditions remain the same.
But the total work period of the employee in the parent company stands as 2 years and in the second company it is 3 plus years. Now the MGMT is not willing to pay gratuity stating that the period starts from the transfer to second company and not from the beginning.
Please advice and share any law which clarifies the same under gratuity scheme!!!!

Dear
With reference to your query regarding payment of gratuity for the service rendered to the group companies, if the management of the companies are ignoring your legal dues you have an option to file a claim under Payment of Gratuity Act and keeping in mind to make both the group company as respondents. Obviously these group companies will toe down and come on foot. You are eligible for gratuity to the tune of Rs. 15 days salary per year. The calculation will be done as per provisions of the gratuity Act i.e your basic salary X 15/26 x servicing years.
