gratuity rule example

  1. Current slab: If the computation of the gratuity amount is based on the current slab, the amount will be calculated as the total of the applicable earnings components, the fraction of the applicable earnings, and the work experience (measured in years). If an employee has five years of experience, according to the aforementioned gratuity rules or slab, they come under the third slab. The formula for determining the gratuity amount is as follows:

Gratuity amount = 5 * 0.467 * (Arrear + Basic)

  1. Sum of all previous slabs: If the computation of the gratuity amount is based on the sum of all prior slabs, the amount will be the product of all individual slabs up to the experience year and the sum of the applicable earnings component. If an employee has five years of experience, the gratuity amount will be calculated according to the aforementioned rules/slab as follows:

Gratuity amount = [(1 * 0) + (2 * 0.233) + (2 * 0.467)]*(Arrear + Basic)
