Response Sheet
Gratuity is calculated using the formula: (Last Drawn Salary × 1/4× Number of Years of Service in Half Years) for employers covered by the Payment of Gratuity Act, where ‘Last Drawn Salary’ includes basic pay plus Dearness Allowance, and ‘Number of Years’ is rounded up if service exceeds 6 months in the final year. For employers not covered, the formula is similar but uses 30 working days instead of 26: (Last Drawn Salary × 15/30 × Number of Years of Service).
Example: Straightforward calculation
Employee’s details:
Last emoluments = ₹60,000 per month
Qualifying service = 30 years 7 months
Step 1: Convert service into six-monthly periods
For 30 complete years:
30 × 2 = 60 six-monthly periods
Remaining service = 7 months
Since 7 months contains another completed six-monthly period:
60 + 1 = 61 periods
So: Six-monthly periods = 61
Step 2: Calculate 1/4 of emoluments
₹60,000 ÷ 4= ₹15,000
Step 3: Multiply by six-monthly periods
₹15,000 × 61= ₹9,15,000
Therefore, the calculated retirement gratuity = ₹9,15,000, before applying the other prescribed limits.
Step 4: Check the 16½-month limit
₹60,000 × 16.5= ₹9,90,000
Compare:
Formula amount=₹9,15,000
16½ months’ emoluments = ₹9,90,000
So the formula amount is lower.
Result: ₹9,15,000, subject to the applicable statutory monetary ceiling.
