Gratuity amount₹ 4,03,846

Gratuity refers to the amount that an employer pays his employee, in return for the services offered by them to the company. But in order to receive the gratuity amount, the employee must be employed by the company for five years or more. The Gratuity Calculator will give you the amount that you are eligible to receive on leaving a job after rendering at least 5 years of service to a company.

How Does Our Gratuity Calculator Work?

Our Gratuity Calculator works on the below formula.

G = n * b * 15 / 26

Where,

G is the gratuity amount you are eligible for
n is the number of years you have worked in the particular organization
b is the last drawn basic salary + Dearness Allowance (DA)

Please note:
Gratuity considers the number of working days in a month as 26 and it calculates wages at the rate of 15 days.

Example:

Mr. Varun have worked with an organization for 15 years. His last drawn basic salary, including dearness allowance was ₹30,000. Hence, the amount of gratuity he will be receiving can be calculated as:

The calculation would look like below:

Gratuity = 15 * 30,000 * 15 / 26
Gratuity = ₹2,59,615

Varun would receive a gratuity of ₹2,59,615 for his service of 15 years.

We should note some important things here. One is that the amount of gratuity cannot be more than ₹20 lakh, according to the Gratuity Act. The other point is that, if the number of years you have worked in the last year of employment is more than 6 months, then it will be rounded to the nearest figure.

For example, if Varun had worked in his company for 16 years 7 months, then he will receive gratutity for 17 years. However, if he worked for 16 years 4 months, he would receive gratuity for 17 years.
