Section 4A makes it mandatory for every employer to invest in the gratuity provision to LIC's gratuity scheme every year. However, this section applies to establishments in the state from the date on which the State Government will notify. Some state governments, like Kerala, have notified dates on which section 4A will be applicable to establishments in such states. If your state has also notified the applicability of this section, then you have to invest the fund in LIC.
