Nopes, to eligible for the gratuity minimum working time requirement is min. 5 years
Are you telling this for EXL?
Do you work there?
As per the latest rules its 4 yrs and 240 days. But not all companies follow this.
Yes — that crosses the threshold.
The rule: Under the Payment of Gratuity Act, the standard requirement is 5 years of continuous service. But courts (notably the Madras High Court in Mettur Beardsell and later upheld in other rulings) have interpreted 4 years + 240 days as sufficient, since the 5th year is considered complete once 240 days are worked in it (190 days for some establishments like mines).
Doing the math:
• 4 years + 240 days = effectively treated as 5 years of continuous service
• You said ~4 years 250 days, which is more than 240 days into the 5th year
So yes, this would qualify for gratuity eligibility under the continuous service interpretation.
A few caveats worth knowing:
• This 240-day interpretation is well-established in case law, but some employers still rigidly insist on a literal “5 completed years” and may resist paying without a fight — you may need to cite the relevant judgments or push through HR/legal if they push back.
• The 240-day threshold applies to establishments working a 6-day week. If it’s a 5-day-week establishment, the threshold is 190 days, which you’d also clear easily.
• This counts continuous service with one employer — gaps, terminations, or breaks in service could affect it depending on the nature of the break (this doesn’t sound like an issue in your scenario, just flagging it
This is what i got the answer from claude! This might help you. Also these kind of questions may be better answers by the companies HR rather than posting it on this platform.
Thanks for the time, though worth realizing everyone has access to the AI models right now.
Second, I soecifically asked if someone from EXL got into a similar situation to get a first hand idea..!!
Again, thanks for investing time..!
