Dear Ms. Lalita,
Mr. Sethupathy's calculation is right. Repeat Basic + DA / 26 days x 15 days for every completed year of service.
However please note you MUST HAVE COMPLETED FULL FIVE (5) YEARS OF SERVICE with the present Company / Organization. Even one day less service - please note you are not eligible for Gratuity as per Gratuity Act.
The hearsay of 240+ days will be calculated as one full year service is all applicable only after completion of 5 full years of service with the Company / Organization. In other words if you work for more than 5 years and having put up 240 days attendance in that financial year, then the calculation should be taken as one year (i.e. 5+...+...) etc.
I hope to have clarified your query may be to your satisfaction (in case you have completed 5 full years of service) or may not be to your satisfaction (in case case you have NOT completed 5 years service because the Gratuity Act does not say so!).

Dear All,
One correction in Mr. Sundaraman's view, as per the judgment of Madras HC, if you have completed 240 days in the fifth year then it is deemed to be considered as completed 5 years of service and you are eligible for the gratuity.
But many us are unaware that 240 days of working in every year is absolutely necessary to fulfill the norms of continuous service in that particular year -even in the first four years of services- which please be noted.
After completion of five years of services, as Mr.Sundar stated 6 months and above are rounded off as one year and less than 6 months are neglected.
For understanding this clearly I have enclosed the M-HC judgment copy and rules on 240 days for your reference.
Hope I made it clear.

Dear Mr. Sethupathy
Thanks for providing the Judgement copy. However I will check with my Friends who are specialists in I.R. and will revert back to you, as lot of difference of opinion is there in this issue and still Gratuity is payable only after completion of 5 years only or 4 yers + 2140 days+ is enough !
Will get back to you soon on this with further more clarification.

Dear Mr. Sethupathy,

Further to my above mail - I hereby give below the reply from Senior Moderator J.S. Malikji in the CiteHR Forum on similar query:

Quote:

Subject - Re: gratuity calculation

dear

your husband has not completed 5 years of service ,so he is not entilte to get gratuity.

some people says after the judgement of madras high court that if individual has completed 240 days

in fifth year ,than individual becomes entilte for gratuity.But it is not correct because on the basis of one judgement there is no change in gratuity act.till the time gratuity act says that one is entitle to get gratuity after having 5 years of service.

Still I have sought clarification from my I.R. Friends on this specific issue. As of now I stand with Gratuity Eligibility only on completion 5 full years of service. 240 days to be treated as one full year comes only after 5 years of completion - i.e. for the 6th year service onwards.

Thank u all for sending clarification on my question. I have another question now.
In that above salary structure, company has not mention the DA details, may be they purposefully omitted the words DA. But they are giving Other Allowances - can we take some part of DA is including this?,
Previously, before formulating this salary structure, they have given the salary structure as
Basic
DA
Conveyance
Leave travelling allowance
Medical reimperment, if bills are not given a standard of 8.33 % of basic given
House rent allowance
Hill station allowance
Could you please clarify.
Also please inform me, Government has any norms for fixing DA with respect to basic salary??

In terms of Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, in my view, an employee must complete 5 years of service. As regards the rounding of period nearest to year, will be counted for computation of Gratuity after the eligibility period of 5 years and cannot be prior to it under any circumstances. The Hon\'ble Madras High Court has abundantly clarified this point. The question of 240 continuous service has no reckoning in 1st 5 years\' of eligibility.
