It further held that later government orders enhancing gratuity and commutation applied only from 1.4.1999 and to those retiring or dying on or after that date, so enhanced gratuity was not available to earlier retirees. However, employees remained entitled to commutation of the revised pension under the pension commutation rules. en-us Fri, 11 Nov 2005 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 28 Apr 2025 11:21:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=458037 The Supreme Court of India held that a notional pay revision effective from 1.7.1998 did not automatically entitle employees retiring before 1.4.1999 to retirement gratuity on the revised pay, because monetary benefit was expressly deferred and gratuity remained governed by the applicable pension rules unless they specifically provided otherwise.
