Frequently Asked Questions
Am I eligible for gratuity?
Generally, an employee becomes eligible for gratuity after completing at least 5 years of continuous service with the same employer (this minimum does not apply in cases of death or disablement).
What is the maximum gratuity I can receive tax-free?
The statutory ceiling under the Payment of Gratuity Act is currently ₹20,00,000 — any amount an employer pays above this is not covered by the Act's mandatory formula (though some employers pay more voluntarily).
