Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Gratuity Calculator?
A gratuity calculator is a financial tool that helps employees estimate the lump sum payment they will receive from their employer at the end of their service. It uses basic salary and duration of employment based on specific country laws.
Is gratuity calculated on total salary or basic salary?
In most jurisdictions, including the UAE and India, gratuity is calculated based on the Last Drawn Basic Salary. Allowances like housing, transport, or commissions are usually excluded from the calculation.
How many years do I need to work to be eligible for gratuity?
In the UAE, you are eligible after 1 year of continuous service. In India, for private sector employees, the minimum requirement is typically 5 years of continuous service, though there are exceptions for termination or death.
Are there any caps on the maximum gratuity amount?
Yes. In the UAE, the total gratuity cannot exceed two years of salary. In India, the current statutory limit is ₹20 Lakhs, as per the 2018 amendment to the Act.
