Gratuity and Ex-Gratia: How Are They Calculated for Monthly Employees?

Understanding Gratuity and Ex-Gratia Calculations

Can you please tell me how the monthly basis gratuity is given to the employee and what is the calculation for that? Please provide me with details about Ex-Gratia and how it is calculated.

Thank you.

Actually, gratuity should be calculated based on the last basic salary multiplied by 15 days divided by the total working days (26) and then multiplied by the total years of service. This is the basic calculation of gratuity:

Gratuity Calculation

GRATUITY = LAST DRAWN BASIC * 15/26 * YRS OF SERVICE

An employee who serves a minimum of 5 years should be eligible for gratuity at the time of relieving or retirement. Please refer to the Gratuity Act for more information.

Ex-Gratia Calculation

Ex-Gratia is when a company is willing to pay a salary to the employee in cases where the employer wants to relieve them. Ex-Gratia will be calculated based on the Guaranteed Cash (gross salary) divided by 30 days and then multiplied by the number of days of Ex-Gratia.

I hope this clarifies the calculation methods for gratuity and Ex-Gratia.

Best regards
