Hi all,
I joined a company where my CTC per annum was fixed at a certain amount and broken into different components, including gratuity. Now the company has restructured the salary structure by increasing the basic component, which has consequently had a bearing on the different components of salary such as PF, gratuity, etc. However, the "total CTC" is still the same.
As a result of the above exercise, my take-home salary has decreased on account of higher deduction of own and employer's PF contribution, as well as increase in the gratuity component.
I know the company is not justified in reducing cash component of my salary, but my query is : Can the company legally reduce cash component of my salary on account of increase in the gratuity component?
Thanks and regards,
Sachin
