In addition to Fogat and Amar's answers, I would like to emphasize that for the payment of gratuity, a minimum of 5 years of service is compulsory, and in each year, the number of working days should not be less than 240.
Thanks and Regards,

Dear Sumit, If employee has not worked for 240 days suppose he has worked only 230 days in any one year out of five year so is he not eligible for gratuity?

Gratuity Calculation Formula
Gratuity is calculated on the last drawn salary (Basic). The formula is: last basic + DA / 26 days * 15 days * number of years completed = gratuity.
Dear All, "DA" means Dearness Allowance. In my case, the Basic is Rs. 6500/-, but there is no information on Dearness Allowance in the Appointment Letter and Payslip as well. If there is no Dearness Allowance for me, what is the calculation? Is it Basic / 26 days * 15 days * number of years completed = gratuity? (Is it correct?) Why are 26 days and 15 days used in the formula?
My Gratuity Contribution is Rs. 312/- for the month.
Waiting for your reply, Seniors.

Understanding Gratuity Calculation
26 days counted as working days in a month means if you divide your last basic + DA by 26 days, you will get one day's salary. As per the Gratuity Act, per year, you get 15 days' salary. This means you can calculate it like this: your basic + DA / 26 = one day of gratuity, then multiply by 15 days to get one year of gratuity, and then multiply by the number of years you have completed in your service.
