i am a retd state psuemployee retd on 30.6.09.my employer implemented sixth pay commission wef 1.1.07 but not implemented enhanced gratuity wef 1.1.07 on the ground that as per the amendment in the payment of gratuity act the effect is only from 24.5.10. ie retirees before the date of 24.5.10 are not eligible for the enhanced gratuity up to 10 lakh as against the limit of Rs3.5 lakhs paid to me in july 2009.
i request the forum to advice whether i am eligible for the enhanced gratuity on par with central govt employees-DCRG.
though my employer adopted sixth pay commission gratuity is also payable at enhanced level other wise otherwise is it not amounts to against the equality of law.further is there any latest amendments in the gratuity act to the rescue of my category retirees.
