18 May 2016 Debt? Do you mean Loan? Long term loan is the loan which extends beyond a period of 3 years. Short term loan is the one which is less than 1 years tenure. The in between should be regarded as Medium Term Loan.
But what is your query for Gratuity Payable.......It is NOT loan.....it is a liability

18 May 2016 that will depend upon the repayment period of the said loans. If the loans are repayable in coming one year, then they will be treated as SHORT term.
