If an employee joins a company at the age of 56 and Gratuity is included in CTC. Will he be entitled to the gratuity at retirement after 2 years? How will it be calculated?

Hi, No. Any employee after completing 5 years of continuous service with the same employer will become eligible for Gratuity.

Ah ha!
This is why people call CTC as a scam.
The employee will not be completing 5 years on retirement so he will not be eligible for gratuity (but can get in case of his death during employment). however, they will count it as CTC and he will get less net pay.

Hi,
If he continues to be in the employment post his retirement, i.e., after 58 years assuming his employment status changed from regular employee to fixed term employment and if he completes five years service he will be eligible for Gratuity.
Further, he continues to be eligible for Gratuity in case of death.
Employees should negotiate their Gross Salary earnings at the time of signing the employment contract rather than admiring at the CTC figures.

Definitely no one of us will prefer the death route for qualifying the gratuity payment. But what to do Gratuity Act does not provide any other possibility for those who are short of 5 yrs minimum service to qualify payment of gratuity. And CTC pattern is not recognised under any law of our country. What's the present status ? has he retired on superannuation (58) or allowed to continue? If he's retiring, I would suggest that he can officially request the management to consider an 'ex-gratia' payment in lieu of gratuity on the ground his remuneration package included in CTC involved gratuity and it could be even proportionate. Alternatively request the management to extend his services by 3 yrs to become eligible for gratuity.
