Gratuity calculator

No universal automatic entitlement is assumed here. Continuous-service tests, working days, jurisdiction and applicable judgments matter. For a four-year regular-employment case, the calculator displays an illustration and flags eligibility for review instead of rounding the employee into eligibility.

Use qualifying wages under the applicable law. The Labour Ministry says the revised wage definition applies from 21 November 2025, including to gratuity payable after that date. Basic plus DA alone may omit required wage adjustments. For a non-covered voluntary payment, the tax formula uses the relevant ten-month average salary.

For ordinary covered employment, a part-year longer than six months adds a formula year; exactly six months does not. Fixed-term service uses a pro-rata illustration after one year. The model applies the general private-sector ₹20 lakh ceiling, separately showing remaining tax exemption after prior claims. Better contractual benefits and government-service rules may differ.
