The continuous service of 4 years and 10 months suffices to fulfil the eligibility criteria of five year service.

But 5 years continued service would need to be completed out of which if 10 months is completed in 5th year,you will be entitled to get gratuity.

Dear Ashis,
As per your post and act,the employee is not eligible, as he has not completed 5 years of service. Since gratuity is a statutory benefit paid to the employees can be considered under the welfare measure by the interpretation given by some courts. Since it is a PSU, please be cautious before doing so and take necessary approval from the authority.
