Query regarding gratuity

as per section 4(2) of the gratuity Act, completion of 5 years is the threshold for becoming eligible to receive gratuity.  however as per the SC ruling in the case of Surendra Kumar Verma v/s Central govt Industrial Tribunal,  the employee has to work for a continuous 240 days in the 5th year to be eligible to receive gratuity..

So as per your case, the person is eligible to receive gratuity, as he has completed continuous service of 240 days in the 5th year.

Dear Mr. Karandikar,

Appreciate your immediate response. According to my organization, i am not eligible for any gratuity as i left the organization within 4yrs 10 months due to health issues.

So is there any document to support this, which i can present to the organization as a proof in order to get my gratuity.

Thanks & Regards
