I am searching for the judgment in The Payment of Gratuity Act;
The Employee has worked in 3 - 4 different establishment where all the Owners are different but the place of work is same, Job of employee is same.
All the establishment are working as a Contractor for Principal Employer. Said all establishment are get closed at interval of 3 to 4 years
lets says'
1. A Firm start in Jan 2012 & closed in Dec 2015
2. B Firm Start in Jan 2016 & closed in Dec 2018
3. C Firm start in Feb 2019 & closed in Mar 2022
4. D Firm start in Apr 2022 & remain continue till date.
In such case my opinion is, employee is eligible for Gratuity.
