Qualification for gratuity?

At the time of leaving, the company pays gratuity to an employee to remain in uninterrupted service for 5 years and more. An employee must work at least 190 days in a firm that works less than 6 days a week. The Payment of Gratuity Act 1972 states that the maximum amount of gratuity to be paid cannot exceed Rs 20 lakh.

Gratuity is calculated differently for monthly, piece rated and seasonal employees.
For employees falling under the Payment of Gratuity Act, gratuity is calculated on the basis of 15 days of the last drawn salary for each completed year of service. If an employee serves more than 6 months in a year, then the entire year is counted towards gratuity.

For seasonal employees, instead of 15 days, only 7 days are taken into account for calculating gratuity and in turn multiplied by the number of seasons worked over the years.
