Certainly; in this connection, you should refer to the provisions of Sec.25-FF of the ID Act,1947 which deal with the procedures of compensation to workmen in case of transfer of undertaking. Apart from gratuity being a service condition applicable to all employees alike, it is also equally important to decide the no of managerial cadre employees to be retained and the terms and conditions of their employment after merger.
Therefore, the HR people have a pro-active role when two companies are slated for a merger.

When two companies merge, the provisions of the Companies Act 2013 would apply. Besides that, in case you are registered as a factory as per the Factories Act 1948, the provisions on change of management would apply and you need to nominate the Factory Occupier and Factory Manager as well as get amended the factory license. In case you are a shop/establishment as per the Shop & Establishment Act you have to inform the authorities concerned of the changes in composition. Additionally an immediate task is to identify the positions that will become redundant, the plan to utilise them or to jettison them have to be prepared. Most importantly, the task of HR is to prepare both the organisation for the merger, employees will have fears, apprehensions and more importantly misgivings. It is necessary to communicate clearly and forthrightly the process of change and reassure the talents of continued care and support.
