Dear All,
I assumed that Mr.Sona Kumar is confused ESI with Employees Compensation Act.
In ECA also there is a consent factor to arrive the compensation to be paid, not like the calculation he has made.

Dear Sonu,
In the first place I did not respond to your post.
You current post is as confusing as your first response wherein you have made some calculation of payable gratuity upto the age of retirement.
Can you please validate your views?

Dear all,
The condition of five year minimum service does not apply in case of death. The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 is not silent about it. It is very clear. It clarifies that the condition of five year service does not apply in case of death. Now the copy of Act is not with me. Please go through it minutely. You will find the reference. If you have any difficulty in finding it, please revert back. I bring a copy of the act and give exact reference. Thanks & regards,

Dear Shayam,
None of the seniors questioned about the disbursement of gratuity in the case of death before five years of services.
The problems we were discussed-
1) In the case of death before one year i.e before filling up of the form F, to whom the gratuity will go?
2) What will be the calculation 15 days or prorate basis for 2 month services?

Dear Shyam Agarwal,
There is no doubt about payment of gratuity in death cases and we all know that it is payable even if the deceased did not work for five years. But the discussion here is that whether it is payable to an employee who died within two months of joining an employment. If yes, how to arrive at the amount.
My simple calculation is that (as already stated) it shall not be more than 15 days salary since that would be the gratuity amount if the death had happened after completion of one year. Even if we take it as employer's liability, it can not be more than what it would be for more than one year. Let us even forget about any pro rata calculation.
Since there may not be any nomination (as required under the Act) if the death had happened before one year, amount shall be paid to legal representatives as declared by the concerned officials.
