Dear Mr. Abhijitmahato,
You are very well applicable for Gratuity. According to the Gratuity Act 1972, you are eligible to get the gratutiy after the completion of Five years. It is calculated as 1 year if a person completes 6 months of service therefore apart from the 2 years of your tenure you have completed 4 years & 240 days a year is deemed to be complete in terms of continuous service. Your 2 years of contract will also be added even if you were in contract, but should be in continuos service without a gap.

Dear Mr. Mahato, Is your 2 years service along with the 4 years 6 months with the same employer? Although, your 4 years 6 months of continuos service would make you eligible for the gratuity.

Please advice.

Dear Mr. Mahato,
The leaves are taken apart. Continuos service is service without a gap ( you said 2 years contract and the employer might have taken you On Roll witha continuos service). If there had been a gap between 2 years and 4 yr 6 months then it wouldn't be considered 6 years 6 months. Preceeding 240 days of service in the 5th year is counted as 1 year of service in the company. Have you resigned the company yet and what is the notice period to you?

Dear Abhijit,
As per the date specified by you, you would be tenuring 4 year 8 months of completed service period. Therefore, you can eventually claim for Gratuity as per Payment of Gratuity Act. Check with your HR for the next process after submitting the Form I of gratuity. Hope this satisfies your query.
