A.Hi,
As per the Payment Gratuity Act, 1979, the benefit of gratuity can be offered to an employee only when he/she has completed a minimum of 5 years of employment under the employer. Since, the working period, in this case, is 4 years 15 days, gratuity can not be claimed.

A.The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, states that an employee is eligible to get gratuity only after he or she has worked with an organization for at least five years. The employee stands to receive the gratuity amount on his or her superannuation, or at the time of retirement or resignation. So you are not entitled to Gratuity.
