Gratuity claim procedure mandates timely application, employer notice, competent authority review, appeal, and recovery for non-payment. Application for gratuity must be made in Form IV within the prescribed time by the eligible employee, nominee or legal heir, with delayed applications still entertainable on sufficient cause. The employer must examine the claim within fifteen days, issue Form V either admitting the claim and fixing payment or giving reasons for rejection, and pay gratuity by demand draft or bank credit. Where disputes arise or the employer fails to act, the claimant may apply to the competent authority in Form VI, leading to notice, hearing, findings on entitlement, possible appeal, and recovery proceedings in Form IX for non-compliance.
