What is Gratuity Insurance
Jewellers Block: Your Precious Assets’ Best Friend!
Think of jewellers block insurance as a 24/7 guard for your bling! It’s specialised coverage that protects jewellery, diamonds, precious stones, and cash throughout their entire journey, whether they’re sitting pretty in your showroom, travelling with your salesperson, or being exhibited at trade shows. From a single gold ring to crore-worth diamond collections, this policy covers theft, fire, transit risks, and mysterious disappearances. It’s like having a security team, fire brigade, and detective agency all rolled into one policy, minus the drama!
Why Is This Policy Vital for Jewellers?
Because Gratuity Is Mandatory, But Bankruptcy From It Isn’t!
Under the Payment of Gratuity Act 1972, every organization with 10+ employees MUST pay gratuity (15 days salary Ă— years of service) to employees completing 5 years. For 100 employees averaging ₹50,000 monthly salary, gratuity liability can reach ₹5-7 crore! Karnataka, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh mandate compulsory gratuity insurance. It’s the difference between “planned retirement benefit” and “sudden cash crisis.” It’s survival insurance for responsible employers!
