FAQs
What is the gratuity formula in India?
Gratuity = (Basic + DA per month) × 15 × Years of Service ÷ 26. For government employees the denominator is 30, not 26. Months ≥ 6 are rounded up to a full year.
What is the minimum service period for gratuity?
5 years of continuous service. However, if an employee dies or becomes disabled before 5 years, gratuity is still payable.
Is gratuity taxable in India?
Gratuity received on retirement, resignation, or superannuation is tax-exempt up to ₹20 lakh. Amount above ₹20L is taxable as salary income.
When must employer pay gratuity?
Gratuity must be paid within 30 days of it becoming payable. Failure attracts interest. The Payment of Gratuity Act 1972 governs this for establishments with 10+ employees.
