Are you eligible for any dues if the company terminates you for long absence?

Dear Sir,

Please advise me. If the company terminated me, am I eligible for the gratuity?

I went on emergency leave for 15 days on 17 December because my father was sick. After that, he expired on 07 January.

I came back on 4th April. I overstayed 75 days. Even I informed my line manager 2 times on 31 December and 19 January.

Now the company terminated me and took my signature on termination later and the company doesn't accept to give my gratuity.

Hello,

If the company terminated you, then you are eligible for compensation and also for the gratuity, provided you have completed 1 year of the service.
