hi Ankita,
If an employee dies within 3 months his legal representative will not be eligible for gratuity coz for calculation of gratuity , the rate of payment is for every completed year of service excess over 6 months,So, if he hasnt even completed 6 months how can you calculate the gratuity payable?
God bless!

hi Ankita,
i think abhishek is right, if you want to know more then you can read the "Graduity Act 1972"
