Understanding Gratuity Calculations

Gratuity is a lump sum amount that an employer pays to an employee as a token of appreciation for the services rendered to the company. It is usually paid at the time of retirement, resignation, or termination.

In India, the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, governs the payment of gratuity. It is applicable to employees who have completed at least five years of continuous service with the same employer.

The formula for calculating gratuity is (15 * Last Drawn Salary * Years of Service) / 26. The last drawn salary includes Basic salary and Dearness Allowance (DA).
