Case:
Mr.X employed by the ABC company. The company promised him that if he would agree to be made redundant,they would pay him 'an ex gratia payment equivalent to the company's contribution to his pension fund'. The company then changed its mind and refused to pay Mr.X the 'ex gratia payment', arguing that these words meant the company could pay if it so chose, not as an obligation under the terms of the contract.

Can Mr.X sue the company for what it promised?? Explain

Verbal agreement is also a part of agreement that employer should execute between any promotion or redundant action to certain employee; as what you say, Mr.X has redundant and SO employer should execute what he had 'promise' to Mr. X, and now he just say 'could' pay instead of 'would' pay........
Go to Labour Dept, and raise this case, Labour Dept. would handle this situation.
