Gratuity calculator
Assumptions
Monthly-rated covered employee estimate: wages × 15/26 × service. Regular service rounds up only for the part exceeding six months; ordinary regular exits require five completed years. Completed fixed-term contracts use pro-rata service with a one-year minimum. Death uses pro-rata service without the minimum; disablement waives the minimum but retains regular service rounding. Re-employment after disablement with changed wages requires separate payroll review. Input wages must follow the applicable statutory definition, not take-home pay or basic salary alone. Contract, continuous-service exceptions, special categories and any superior employer benefits need review. The editable ceiling defaults to ₹20 lakh; this is gross gratuity, not tax-exempt gratuity.
Rules: Code on Social Security, in force 21 November 2025, reviewed 2026-09-11.
