Hi,

You are eligible for gratuity provided you have valid transfer letters. In case you have resigned and then joined the group company, you will lose your eligibility.

Since your Service is continued with the same employer. Location(Transfer) does not matter. As per Gratuity Act 1972, employee can get the gratuity only on resignation or retirement.

I dont think there will be any problem on payment of Gratuity to you. The reason being the company is same and you are only transfred from branch to another. Please ask your HR what is the reasons for not paying Gratuity in writing, so that you can take further decison on the matter.

Dear Mr. Amar,

You please confirm with your employer that your name has been included in the list of employees, whose premium has been paid to the insurance agency.

If you are not in the list, then no way you get your gratuity.

Thanks,

Dear Concern,

For gratuity you should have 5 years of cpntinous service with one organization.

Hi Amar,

The company cannot refuse your Gratuity payment if your service with them has been continously for a period of 5 years and above. It has nothing to do with your location of work provided you have been continously on their payroll and there has been no break in service. You can take this matter up with your HR head and question their reason for not paying you your Gratuity.
Remember, Gratuity payment is only mandatory if it has been promised to you in writing. If not then you would have to consult a legal professional to help you in this case.
My advice would be to speak to your HR head and get their point of view basis which I can advise you further on what can be done.

Regards
Godfrey

Please look at the points mentioned in your transfer letter. Under a same company irrespective of your branch, you are eligible for gratuity on completing five years.

Secondly, Same employer but has different units with different registrations. Then the previous authority should issue a transfer letter mentioning all your leave, pf, gratuity benefits will be transferrred to new unit and will be continued.

Also look at your first appointment letter about the provision of transferring

Dear More,

you were transferred from one city branch to another city branch. then you can transfer your PF account by using form 13 and submit to your new city brach hr then he has to care of your form submission and etc., in gratuity you should have to completed minimum 5 years service in any organization. Just you have been transferred only not join in new brach so once you have completed you 5 years service you are eligible for gratutity when will be leaving the organization.

Mr.Amar
If I am correct, U r in soop.
Just listen carefully.

U have been transferred by every two year from Company 1 to Company 2 and viceversa. correct.
Pl remember that the EPF codes are different.

In such ocassion you dont have the eligibility for Graduity. Y because you need to complete mandatarily 5 years of continuous service for enjoing Graduity.

The question is not clear. PF and Gratuity are two different stautory payments. While the PF contributions (employee & employer) are deposited regularly with the concerned PF office by employer
for which all the individual employees are given a PF account number.

Gratuity is payable under the provisions of Payment of Gratuity Act-1972.

I understand from the question that your employer is one and the same but you are transferred to a different brnach probaly a new geographical location. In that case there is no need to get Gratuity transferred from your earlier branch office to new branch office. The Gratuity is payabble to you when you get seperated from the company after serving for a minimu period of 5 years.

Even transfer of PF account is necessary only when the jurisdiction of your business area changes.

I hope this clears your doubt.

The problem lies in the fact that you havn't left the company yet. Gratuity is a post separation benefit which is only receivable after you leave the company for good and not on a transfer.
