Dear Prashant , Hello
The term Moral Turpitude has been explained by various professional above, specially Keshav ji. In simple words, the misconduct which is against the accepted norms of the society, if committed during the course of employment, amounts to misconduct under moral turpitude in the context of any Estb. In such case, if the dismissal of an employee has been made on the ground of moral turpitude, it has to be clearly mentioned in the Dismissal Order and also the amount of gratuity which has to be forfeited. If there is no mention of it in the Dismissal Order, the amount of gratuity cannot be forfeited under any circumstance. NOR EVEN BY ANY DECREE by Court. The Dismissal Order has also to be passed by Competent Authority i.e. the appointing authority because appointing authority can only dismiss.
