Appreciate your help on the below question:
A long term employee has deceased in hospital after non professional illness.
How to calculate the gratuity?
- age of Employee: 42
- Date of Joining – 01/09/2001
- Date of Expire – 10/06/2018
- Total service – 16 years 9 month (= 17 years)
- Salary: 150000
I would calculate the gratuity as below:
1,50,000*15/26 *17= 14,71,153 Rs
* Is that calculation correct?
* Is there any additional amount on account of “death gratuity”
* is the gratuity to be paid fully to his wife, or partly to his minor kids (being deposited in this case)? (there is no nomition form)
* Employee has 60 days negative leaves (as company continued to pay his salary while he was in hospital). Can this leaves be deducted?
Thanks a lot in advance for your opinions.

150000 ... Is it the monthly gross? If yes, then correct
Additional money can be paid on account of GRATITUDE
Wife or Father
Removing 60 days (you already paid. So don't recover)
still makes the total years to 17.

"Removing 60 days (you already paid. So don't recover)

As per the definition of continuous service(sec 2a(1) of Payment of Gratuity Act 1972),these 60 days of hospitalisation also counts for working out total service.
Just for information

Since the member did not file any nomination, and a death you have to tell them, to obtain a legal heir certificate. Deposit the Gratuity calculated, before the Gratuity Authority under payment of Gratuity Act, for disposal of the claim, by the legal heirs.

Thanks all for your contribution.
Regarding the 60 days negative leave: In my opinion the salary for the 60 days negative leave should be deducted from the gratuity
In this case
Gratuity: 150,000*15/26 *17= 14,71,153 Rs
negative leave: about 3,00,000
= amount to pay: 11,71,153

Hi The calculation has to be on the basic salary plus DA if any and not on the gross. Please take this into consideration if the same was missed out. Thanks and Regards

As per payment of gratuity act 1972 section 4(2) wages of fifteen days. The wages mean basic +DA. Formula= last drawn wage*15*total service/26.

Ravinder Hr, Kindly read the provisions of Sec 2 of Payment of Gratuity Act, Continuous service is clearly defined. 60 days of hospitalisation leave cannot be deducted.
