Your father has remained silent during 2p7 years of service when the business as well and after 27 years, and after the closing of the shop now remembered his rights. Meet Labour Inspector of that locality and also make inquiries with their Association/Union as they have such welfare schemes and can guide members, if your father obtained membership.

Hi Naveen,

In addition to PF & ESI (that your father already have), other option is Gratuity; for employees those have completed 5 years of their services and where total number of employees in shop is 10 or above. The formula to calculate Gratuity is as follows:

(15 X last drawn salary X tenure of working) divided by 26

But if organisation is closed down permanently due to financial loss, it will be little tough to get it. Hope this would help.
