Sec 2A of Payment of Gratutity Act defines Continuos service as follows
Continuous service.—For the purposes of this Act,—
(1) an employee shall be said to be in continuous service for a period if he has, for that period, been in uninterrupted service, including service which may be interrupted on account of sickness, accident, leave, absence from duty without leave (not being absence in respect of which an order 11 [***] treating the absence as break in service has been passed in accordance with the standing orders, rules or regulations governing the employees of the establishment), lay-off, strike or a lock-out or cessation of work not due to any fault of the employee, whether such uninterrupted or interrupted service was rendered before or after the commencement of this Act;
So kindly review his employment records and see whether Dec13 to Dec14 is covered undr this.
Extract from Bare Act
where an employee (not being an employee employed in a seasonal establishment) is not in continuous service within the meaning of clause (1), for any period of one year or six months, he shall be deemed to be in continuous service under the employer—
(a) for the said period of one year, if the employee during the period of twelve calendar months preceding the date with reference to which calculation is to be made, has actually worked under the employer for not less than—
(i) one hundred and ninety days, in the case of any employee employed below the ground in a mine or in an establish-ment which works for less than six days in a week; and
(ii) two hundred and forty days, in any other case;
You can decide taking all these facts into consideration.
I still say he is entitled for Gratuity unless in 13-14 there was a documented break in service for which he was punished as break in service.

Dear Nathrao ji,
You said that a person is entitled for gratuity as long there was no break in service during the last five years. Your post has one validation also.
I would like to ask you with due respect to you Sir, where it is stated in the PoG Act? Your reply will give more clarity in the subject.
I read your subsequent post too.
