Unapproved gratuity fund

This query is : Resolved 

15 December 2014 Any contribution made to an unapproved gratuity fund is not allowable as a deduction as per section 40A(7). Therefore request your help in determining as to when the contribution made by the employer can be allowed as a deduction under the provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961 and under which section. Can it be allowed at the time when the unapproved fund makes the actual payment of gratuity to employees. Thanks for your help in advance.
