Dear Mr Y Ravi,
Yes you are eligible for the gratuity. I recommend you filling the Form 1 of Gratuity Act and handing it over the HR Department. Obtain the signature on the photocopy of the form. If HR refuses to sign, then send it by the Speed Post with acknowledgement due. Preserve the receipt from the Post Office.
If no communication is received after one month then send a reminder by email as well as by speed post. If still nothing happens then approach this forum for the further advice. However, if you are required to approach this forum, then do not start a new thread but write a new post on this thread only.
Thanks,

If you company is covered under Payment of gratuity Act,there is no need for any seperate agreement for gratuity entitlement.
Law gives you the right to get gratuity.
Submit necessary forms to the company by hand or speedpost and get acknowledgement.
Read Section 4 of the Payment of Gratuity Act.
Sec 7 of the same Act is also worth reading.
Once you read it you will understand time limit by which employee is to be paid(30days)
You are entitles for simple interest in case of delay in payment also.
So without delay write and submit the forms to your company and maintain documentation of the claim with dates,receipt at employer office etc.
