How this is calculated
Covered employers pay 15 days’ wages for each year of service, counting a month as 26 working days. Not covered: 15 days per completed year, with a 30-day month.
gratuity = 15 ÷ 26 × ₹60,000 × 8 = ₹2,76,923
Under the labour codes in force from November 2025, fixed-term employees qualify after one year, and wages can’t be less than half of total pay. Statutory gratuity is capped at ₹20 lakh; employers may pay more, but anything above the tax-free limit is taxed.
