In Rule 21A(4) procedure has been laid down in respect of computation of relief in case of Compensation on termination of employment.
The basic requirement of this rule prescribes that- 1. 3 years continuous service has been rendered. 2. Unexpired period of service should also be not less than 3 years.
I think that the service agreemwnt does not prescribe any duration for his services. * If you say- 7 month's salary & other allowance , and suppose 3 months out of it falls in the preceding financial year, but I can say that being the tax rates are minimal in this FY he will hardly get any relief.
