A.Hi client,
It seems that the bond which you have signed will make you abide what the company says.
Kindly, let an advocate review the same.
For gratuity, you can send them a legal notice and if not agreed file a suit.

Thanks and Regards
Simi Paul

A.Dear client,
Since there is a legal bond between you and the employer you need to compensate the same. However, as mentioned by you that no gratuity was given to you and gratuity is a statutory right of employee whoever completes 5 years in the same organization, you can claim for it.
If you have been denied gratuity payment by your employer, you can file a complaint under Section 8 of Payment of Gratuity Act 1972.
Hope it helps.
