Following the Payment of Gratuity Act in case of death the employer is liable to pay the dependent of the deceased employee gratuity calculated for the service rendered by the employee only. That means if the total service is 4 years, then the employer's liability is to pay gratuity for four years.
However, if the gratuity is under a trust by depositing the annual premia (based on an actuarial valuation) in the Life Insurance Corporation and with an additional premia to link the same to life policy, then the LIC will pay the gratuity which will be equal to an amount projected to the age of superannuation of the deceased. The main attraction of making provision of gratuity fund linked to policy is that the dependents of the deceased employee will get a good amount and on the part of employer the additional premium payable to cover this is also very less.
