If an establishment works less than 6 days in a week, then the number of days required for continuous service is 190 and not 240.
Pl read Section 2-A(2)(a) (i) of Payment of Gratuity Act 1972 which reads as follows
(i) one hundred and ninety days, in the case of any employee employed below the ground in a mine or in an establishment which works for less than six days in a week; and
(ii) two hundred and forty days in any other case.

Dear All,
The jurisprudence is about interpreting the provisions of law in such a way that they seem just and fair. I strongly believe that while interpreting any beneficial legislation we should give the provision the most liberal interpretation possible so that so much it favour employee and also donot do unjustice with employer.
I totally agree with Learned Justice S.M. Abdul Wahab as he has given a well reasoned judgment to the question of entitlement of gratuity. In my opinion also the entitlement of gratuity is 4 years and 240 days.
I would like to request to the members to go through the attached judgment and examine the logic given by the Ld. Justice without getting into the technicality of territorial jurisdiction.
