Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether all companies are legally obligated to provide for gratuity, as stipulated by the Companies Act, and if actuarial certification is necessary. It delves into the accounting treatment, questioning how gratuity provisions are made and whether they should be treated as a liability or an expense.
