How to compute the Gratuity amount of an employee who joined 01.12.2003 (continued till 30.09.2015) in the organization as full time employee and from 01.10.2015 to 31.03.17 he opted to work as a part time employee. To compute no of completed year, what should be a full year is it calendar year (January to December) or financial year (April to March).

In my view if the terms of employment of that employees at the time of his part time employment were such that he was entitled to all the benefits then he will be treated as in continuous employment from 1.2.2003 to 31.3.17. The number of completed years of service will be taken from his date of employment i.e.1.12.2003 till 31.3.17.
