This plan helps you save money and build a kitty that helps you pay the amount of gratuity to your employees. At the same time, you can get returns earned on this kitty.

What is Gratuity?

Gratuity is a compulsory benefit to be provided to employees as per the Gratuity Act, 1972. It is a lump sum amount paid out to employees, once they are no longer a part of the company. An employee is eligible for payment of gratuity only if he or she fulfills the conditions specified under the Gratuity Act.

How does this plan work?

As an employer, you can choose to invest a certain amount of money in order to meet your future gratuity liability. The amount set aside by you is invested in a range of equity and debt funds to provide returns over a long term. The kitty created under this plan is then used to make claim payments for gratuity when employees exit.
