Hello Mr. Iyer,
Thank you for your reply to my query. Does this mean that if at the time of resigning/retiring, 15 days salary X no. of yrs of service is more than 3.50 lacs, legally employee can not claim gratuity of above 3.50 lacs?

1. What is the basic information required for the settlement of gratuity under the payment of gratuity Act,1972 ?
2. An employee has worked in any organisation for 20 years or more. Is it
compulsory to check his /her all increment details i.e. annual Increment / salary fixation which is recorded in the service book, at the time of payment of gratuity due to retirement /resignation / death ?
3. Any amount which has been contributed in excess towards employer share in PF account due to wrong salary fixation / increment or any other reason , whether this Employer contribution amount can be recoverable from payable gratuity to the Employee due to retirement / resignation / death ?

Dear Mr Saxena
1) For the settlement of gratuity under the payment of gratuity Act,1972, you need to ensure the minimum 05 years of continous service of an employee and to compute the gratuity, his Last drawn Basic Salary. Apply the formulla to calculate the Gratuity.
2) There is no need to check his past increments records to compute the Gratuity. Only Last Drawn Basic is sufficient.
3) Any Excess contribution made in PF account can not be recovered from Gratuity Amount. B'coz the controlling authorities for the both the acts are deiffetent and hence con not be adjsted.
