Your last drawn pay,DA,and special pay if any would be taken for the calculation of gratuity.

Yes. Very well advised by the expert Sri Isaac Gabriel sir.

For the calculation of gratuity, salary includes only Basic salary and Dearness Allowance (DA). There won't be any other components that will be considered for the calculation of gratuity here.

Akhamadbhai (Admin Manager) 27 September 2023

But comapny paid many employees on Basic salary although there is mention Graduity on Total Pay inculding all allowances.

So I want to know it clear?

I agree with the reasoned opinion and advise of learned experts.

Gratuity shall be calculated as defined in Section 2(8)(s) of the Payment of Grauity Act, 1972 which provides wages to include basic + dearness allowance but not any other allowance or bonus etc. paid to the employee.

If so, you are one of luckiest employee in world, and it is an eye opener and breaking news
