I worked in Space Applications Centre (ISRO), Govt. of India, Ahmedabad for more than 31 years. I applied for the post of Professor through proper channel to Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU), New Delhi (Govt. of NCT Delhi) and joined on February 01, 2008 by submitting Technical Resignation. ISRO gave me all the terminal benefits including gratuity (Rs. 10,000,00). I superannuated from the services of GGSIPU on January 31, 2019 after completing service of 11 years. Despite my oral and written requests university has still not paid my gratuity without assigning any rule. I Googled “how many times gratuity can be claimed”. Answer is: it can be claimed many times if one completes five years of service. Please tell whether gratuity can be claimed and if so under which rule. I would appreciate a copy of the relevant Govt. of India rule. Please suggest as to what further action should be initiated if University doesn’t relent.

Dear sir, please refer your university act, 1998 - section 33. I find it on google search.
