Understanding Gratuity: Does Missing DA Affect My Calculation and How Do I Figure It Out?

I have been working in a private firm since July 2008 (6 years, 4 months, 15 days). Below is my salary breakup:

- Basic: 18633
- HRA: 9317
- Conv. Reimbursement: 800
- Medical Reimbursement: 250
- Total Salary: 30000
- P.Tax: 200
- Net Salary (One Month): 29800

As you can see, there is no DA mentioned. Can this absence affect the gratuity amount? If so, how? How do I calculate gratuity from the above details?

Gratuity Calculation Formula

Gratuity Formula = (Basic + DA) / 26 days x Number of years of completed service. For your case, Rs. 18,633 x 6 years / 26 = Rs. .............

Gratuity Calculation Formula

Gratuity = Last Basic Drawn * 15/26 * No. of Years of Service
= 18,633 * 15/26 * 6
= Rs. 64,499/-

Since DA is not mentioned, you may calculate it using the formulae provided by Ms. Sharma.

Gratuity Calculation

Last drawn (Basic + DA) / 26 * 15 = 18633 / 26 * 15 = 10750/-

10750 * 6y = 64500/-

For service taken into account for more than 6 months, it is counted as 1 year of service.
