Dear Sir/Madam,
I have a doubt as to whether every company should compulsorily create a fund for the payment of Gratuity. After going through the provisions of the Act, I found that insurance is compulsory as per Sec. 4A (1), but I am not sure about the applicability date. Please specify whether the said section has been notified by the Central Govt. and State Govt. of Maharashtra, and if yes, then when?
