Dear Sir,all have to come under one umbrella so that country treats all senior citizen as one.We should have one policy for retiring benefits.i endore that new gratiuty act should be for everyone and one date prefered 1.1.2006
We can celebrate One year completion of discriminatory implementation of Gratuity Act against PSU employees retired between 1.1.2006 to 23.05.2010, on May23rd2011. Election are round the corner in 5 states. Still nothing is achieved.No takers for this cause.This is the realty.
cbdt is to notify/clarify immediately that the enhanced limit of gratuity exemption is applicable to PSU/Bank retired staff also to avoid confusion.
MR SALIAN, I FULLY ENDORSE UR VIEWS
AND APPEAL TO THE AFFECTED PEOPLE TO COME TOGETHER AND FIGHT THE CAUSE BECAUSE IT WILL BE AGAINST THE PERSONS WHO INCREASE THEIR SALARIES BY NO OF TIMES (5TIMES OR 6 TIMES)AS THEY FEEL.PERTICULARLY I AM WITH U AND CAN JOIN HANDS WITH U
Dear sir,
I, hereby, fully endorsethe respectable submission made by sh. K.A. Salian as above.
Really, the appointment of the effective date of Gatuity Act, 2010 by the Govt. of ndia, is really a shocking blow to the retired employees of PSUs,banks and the that of Private establishmnets.
It has never been the precidence
in Indian Democracy that while ehancement of Gratuity limit in the past, a differnt yardstick is used in between the Central Government employees and the employyes of PSU including banks and Private establishment, as has been discreminatorily done this time while appointment of differnt dates giving effect to the imlementation of the revised quantum of Gratuity, as enhanced from Rs. 3.5 lac to 10 lac.
– It is very pertinent to mention here the retired employees,(during the period i.e form 1.1.2006 and before the date of notification),who were having
exceedingly aspirations for getting hefty arrears with retrospective effect on implementation of latest Gratuity Amendmenment by the Govt., are badly hit and perturbed Over the Govt’s stance of using discrimination in fixing the effective date for Central Govt vis-a-vis for the retired employees of PSU, Banks and Private establishments.
– Hence the Govt. Decision as such is totally discriminatory ,against all cannons of equality and justice. This is quite surprising one, that in a Parliamentary Democracy of our beloved country ,how one act has differnt definition/meaning as regards
deliverences to the
beneficiaris, of the benefits contained threin i.e to the pleasures of a section of employees and a total dipleasure to others, who also happen to be Citizens of the same Country.
– It is therefore, the appointed date of Gratuity i.e. 24.5.2010 against the expected
desired date i.e.1.06.2006,
is totally in defiance to the Sprit of the Act Passed by both the August Houses of Parliamrnt hence discriminatory, detrimental to the interest of the retired employees and the Senior citizens as well and hence need to be recondsidered, reviewed so as give it a retrospective effect.
The above submissions made, be taken in true spirits of Equity Law and Justice to all the Citizens of this Democratic Republic of India.
I agree with views of Mr Salian to protest to change gratuity inhancement date from 24.05.2010 to 01.01.2006. We must join for common cause.
NOW after amendment of Gratuity Act, CBDT should clarify at the earliest the date of IT Exemption for employees covered by sixth Pay Commission other than Central Govt employees.In many such cases tax has already been deducted by employers in 2009-10 which should be refunded to avoid discrimination and court cases.
Government has already given the benefit of enhanced gratuity from 1.1.2006 to its own employees. Can
it discriminate against the employees of PSUs etc on the plea that they donot have capacity to pay. This plea may hold good for private sector employers but cannot apply to PSUs.
I agree with CA Salim fully with addition that our government can afford to waive loans to the tune of thousands crores but can not give relief to its senior citizens who happened to be part and parcel of this growing economy. Mr. Manmohan Singh is requested to look into it very carefully.
It is very clear that labour minister is also against retired people. With the mounting price of daily required products, the finance minister is not providing any tax relief to people who are above 60 years and below 65 years.
It is a clear case of discrimination between employees in government and private sector. Apparently, the labour minister has treated the govt employess retired after 1.1.2006 as a class above compared to people retired from private sector.
Does this mean that people retired from private sector from 1.1.2006 to 23.5.2010 are not India citizens. I appeal to people retired from private sector from 1.1.2006 to 23.5.2010 to come-together and fight for injustice inflicted by the Hon. Dr Manmohan Singh ministry.
