How gratuity is calculated

For employees covered under the Payment of Gratuity Act: Gratuity = last drawn salary (Basic + DA) × 15 × years of service ÷ 26 — 15 days' pay for each completed year, based on 26 working days. Not covered? A divisor of 30 is used. Gratuity is tax-free up to ₹20 lakh (lifetime) for non-government employees; government employees get it fully tax-free. You generally need 5 years of continuous service.
