This query is : Resolved
Sir, My father was a teacher in an aided govt college at sitapur. He was expired at the age of 59 years in 2009. Dept has paid GPF, GIS and pension to my mother. But payment of death gratuity is neither claimed nor received due to unawareness.
So, do my mother can claim it?
What is the GO for payment of gratuity?
What are the basis for claim of death gratuity?
Please advice.

Gratuity would automatically have been paid by the department concerned to the nominee within one month of the date of death by getting the application signed by the nominee or the wife of the deceased, as the case may be. Failing which, interest also becomes due to be claimed by the nominee, if exists there or the wife of the deceased, if no nomination is there. So, please check with the pension sanctioning office whether there stands any nomination or not. After that application be made the prescribed form by the eligible person (nominee or your mother) to the pension sanctioning authority.

Very well analysed and advised by expert Mr. PS Dhingra, I fully agree and appreciate his acumen.
It is the responsibility of department/ School to make payment of gratuity even before sanctioning and payment of pension, however, there is some vital unrevealed information. Recheck records.
If required submit an application to the Head of School and Director of School Education for payment of death-cum-retirement gratuity to nominee of deceased.
