Dear All,
I am employed by a UK Company - with an appointment letter on the UK letter head - as Country Manager - India. The company still has a branch office and a private limited company ( registered in ROC, Karnataka) active. For a few months in 2005/2006; they had around 20 employees - whom they terminated and paid off. There is 1 employee in the private limited company still and I am still holding the same employment letter from the UK company.
Now the company wants to get rid of me - and i am claiming that they need to pay Gratuity to me. Company claims that for Gratuity to be paid; there need to be at least 10 employees in the company.
Can you please advice if I am eligible to claim gratuity or not?
they claim that since the location of employment is India; only Indian employment law would apply and not UK employment law.
Sincerely
Gopal

In view of the above you are eligible to have gratuity from your employer.

Dear Khola,
Thank you for your email. I have proof of starting EPF for the 20 staff who were there during 2005/2006. Gratuity was not paid to them at the time of terminating since no one had completed 4 years with the company.
Under this situation; is it still valid that I am eligible to get Gratuity paid even though there is only one employee?
Thank you

If a person has put in 240 days of continuous serice in the fifth year, he will be entitled to receive the gratuity. The Judgement of Madras High Court supports this view. Pankaj
