Quick Summary

This discussion explores the correct procedure for paying gratuity under the Gratuity Act. It clarifies that gratuity should generally be paid directly to employees. However, if there's a dispute regarding the payable amount, the employer should deposit the disputed sum with the designated controlling authority.

To employee.

If there is dispute regarding amount of gratuity payable, employer should deposit the amount, payable as per him, to the controlling authority (i.e. any officer appointed by appropriate govt.).
