My company was registered as a Pvt. Ltd. firm in 2008. One employee who joined in 2007 is now resigning in 2015. In between, she took a one-year leave. She is claiming her Gratuity. What I want to know is, should I consider the years of service as 7 or 6? (2007 to 2015 - 1) = 7 or 2008 (company registered) to 2015 - 1 = 6.

when she not served 240 days in a year, she is not eligible for gratuity and hence you can give gratuity for 7 years of service.

Dear Jeena,
If she has not worked for 240 days in a particular year, you need not consider that year for paying gratuity. Your calculations will be for 6 years. The date of joining will be considered, not the co-registration, for calculating gratuity.

Hi Acts Says the below Points,
Nomination (Sec 6) Each employee who has completed one year of service is required to make a nomination for the purposes of gratuity in the case of his death. There can be more than one nominee (Form F). Nominees may be changed at any time by the employee by giving written notice to the employer (Form H). If no nomination has been made, it shall be paid to the legal heirs of the deceased employee. If the heirs are minor, the share of such a minor shall be deposited by the controlling authority with a bank until he attains majority.
If no nomination is named, you may ask the nominee to prove they are legal heirs of the deceased person by providing certificates like a family ration card, marriage invitation, etc.

The constitution of the establishment and its subsequent changes, whether in its form or ownership, have no relevance to the payment of gratuity. What is relevant is the continuity of service of the employee in the establishment, completion of qualifying service of not less than 5 years of continuous service on normal termination of employment, and rendering of continuous service in every year.
