Hi Richa,
When a employee can apply for his final EPF withdrawal , he is eligible for claim both Employee and employer share.
For gratuity: According to the law, an organization has to pay gratuity to an employee who has served it continuously for at least 5 years. For each year of service, the organization has to pay an amount equaling 15 days of last drawn salary. Salary here means basic salary plus dearness allowance plus commission, if commission is a fixed percentage of sales. Moreover, if a person works for over 6 months in the last year of service, it will be considered as a complete year for gratuity calculation. For instance, if a person completes 7 years and 6 months of continuous service, gratuity paid will be for 8 years.
For gratuity calculations, a month of work is calculated as 26 days. So the 15-day salary will be calculated as (monthly salary*15)/26. This number multiplied by the number of years in service will be the gratuity amount payable.
