Gratuity Entitlement
Statutory Gratuity Mathematical Formula
As of September 30, 2026, the Payment of Gratuity Act 1972 applies to every factory, mine, oilfield, plantation, port, railway, and commercial establishment employing 10 or more persons on any day of the preceding 12 months. Gratuity up to ₹20,00,000 received by non-government employees is 100% exempt from income tax under Section 10(10)(ii).
A month is considered to have 26 working days (excluding 4 Sundays). Gratuity is calculated at 15 days' wages for every completed year of service. If service in the final year exceeds 6 months, it is rounded up to the next full year.
