Gratuity Calculator — Calculate Your Gratuity Amount on Resignation or Retirement
Gratuity is a lumpsum amount paid by your employer when you leave the company after at least 5 years of continuous service. It's a thank-you payment for your years of work, governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Our Gratuity Calculator gives you the exact amount you're entitled to based on your last drawn salary and years of service.
Enter your last drawn basic salary, dearness allowance, and years of service. Get the gratuity payable and a year-by-year table of how it builds up. No signup, no cost.
How to Calculate Gratuity
1. Last Drawn Salary
Enter the last basic salary plus DA — the calculation uses this, not the full CTC.
2. Years of Service
Enter your completed years of service. Under the Act a final part-year of more than six months counts as a full year; the calculator doesn’t round, so round up yourself if that applies.
3. Employer Type
Choose if your employer is covered under the Gratuity Act — this slightly changes the formula.
4. View Gratuity
See the gratuity payable, the service years used and a year-by-year table of how your gratuity builds up.
Gratuity Calculator Features
Both Formulas
Supports the formula for employers covered under the Gratuity Act and those not covered.
Visual Breakdown
The amount is capped at ₹20 lakh, the most the law allows, with a note when the formula gives more. A chart shows your gratuity against that ceiling.
Eligibility Check
Below 5 years of service the calculator shows no gratuity, as the Act requires. (Courts have sometimes accepted 4 years and 240 days; the calculator doesn’t.)
Standard Formula
Covered employers: last basic + DA × 15 × years of service ÷ 26. Employers not covered: the same, divided by 30.
Year-Wise Breakdown
A table shows how your gratuity builds up with each year of service, from year 5.
