Gratuity entitlement and calculation rules for employees, including eligibility, computation methods, nominees, caps, and forfeiture grounds. Section 53 provides that gratuity is payable to employees after specified service durations and triggering events, generally computed at fifteen days' wages per completed year (with Central Government notified variations). Special computation rules apply to monthly rated, piece rated, seasonal and fixed term employees; death nominees and minor deposit rules are prescribed; a Government notified maximum may cap payments. Wages for periods before and after disablement are treated differently, better contractual gratuity terms are preserved, and gratuity may be forfeited wholly or partly for damage, violent conduct, or offences of moral turpitude in the course of employment.
