Is gratuity to an employee payable if he has worked for 4 years 9 months? Or is it payable only post completion of 5 years?

Generally, an employee needs to complete five years of continuous service to be eligible for gratuity. However, there are exceptions, such as in cases of death or disability, where gratuity is payable even if the employee hasn't completed five years. If an employee has completed 4 years and 240 days of service, it is considered equivalent to 5 years for gratuity eligibility.
