Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before creating your document.

Why is a written Full & Final settlement letter important?+

A written FnF settlement letter records the breakup of all dues, deductions and net payable amounts, helping both employer and employee avoid disputes and demonstrating fair and transparent exit practices.

Does this template replace statutory payslips or Form 16?+

No, the template supplements statutory payslips and Form 16; it summarises the exit-specific settlement while regular payroll and tax documentation must still be issued as required by law.

Can FnF be processed without the employee’s signature on this letter?+

Organisations may process FnF on the basis of internal approvals, but obtaining the employee’s acknowledgement is strongly recommended to document acceptance of the breakup and reduce future disputes.

How should PF and gratuity be addressed in the settlement letter?+

The letter should indicate whether PF and gratuity are applicable and whether they are included in the FnF or handled through separate statutory processes, with clear reference to any additional forms the employee must complete.
