I resigned from my services. I was working as a personal secretary to the Executive Director. I started my employment on 01/05/2001 and resigned on 31/05/2017, accumulating a total of 16 years of service.
My basic salary is Rs. 15,570/-, and DA is 375. Therefore, I calculated my gratuity as follows: 15,570 + 375 = 15,945 x 15 x 16 / 26 = 1,47,184 would be my gratuity amount. However, I received a cheque of Rs. 1,29,360/- only. When I approached my accounts department for clarification, they mentioned that they are giving and calculating it in the same manner.
Question about Gratuity Calculation
My question is, should I request the formula that they used for the calculation? Are there different formulas to calculate gratuity other than the one I used? I would appreciate it if someone could guide me as I need clarification.
