--------If you are resigning from service by submitting notice of resignation/resignation then company is not terminating you by issuing order of termination.

Company has extracted a resignation from you and it is Forced resignation.

Forced resignation is deemed as termination.

Employee has to rise and agitate for forced resignation. Extracting resignation by force, coercion within of company is offence.

In your personnel file company might have inserted by now adverse comments which may reflect in adverse comments in future.

You would know what are the justification, reasons for and act committed by you that company has demanded to put in your papers and your logic of submitting resignation in concurrence to the demands of the company.

Thanks Kumar for your response.

They are not actually terminating, but have asked me to look for change outside. They had given two months of time. I have already served 1 month. Today I have resigned. May 31 is my last woking day in the office. Termination is something releaving on immediate effect. So i believe it is forced resignation and not termination. 

They have agreed to provide proper documentation on my last day. So i believe it does not hamper my future.

With this in mind, will I get my gratuity. As per the law, I will be completing 5 years and 15 days at the time of my last day. 

Refer to; Sec 3(b) (c) 3A, Sec5.

If the Act is applicable to your company, company has to pay Gratuity.

You may submit FormI, now under proper acknowledgment, and ask to pay gratuity on last day in offcie along with other payouts in FNF.

Thank you very much for your response. This helps.
