Pathakji, The notification has been posted by many. But the crux of the issue is from which date the enhanced ceiling will be effective? If you carefully read the notification, it mentions that it will take effect from the date the Government decides (appoints or fixes) to implement the revised Act. Though the Central Government wage revision circular stated that wage increases, etc., would be effective from 1.1.2006 (1.1.2007 for PSUs), in view of the wording in the Act passed by the Parliament, there is an element of doubt. I wish we get to have clarity in this regard.

Friends,
Somebody says it is not passed by Rajya Sabha, IT IS WRONG. It has indeed been passed by both houses and must have gone to the President for signature. Then only Gazette notification. The suspense regarding the Date of Implementation continues; the reply given by the Minister in Rajya Sabha makes us feel that it is not with retrospective effect. Since private companies are involved, they will lobby and get it deferred as long as possible. After all, an outflow of money is involved.

The Gratuity Act Amendment Bill, 2010, which has increased the gratuity limit to Rs 10 lakhs, has been passed by both Houses of Parliament. While replying to requests made by Labour Union leaders in Rajya Sabha, the Labour Minister has stated difficulties over giving effect to a retrospective implementation. However, there is a case for making it retrospective effect in the case of PSUs since the wage revision was in line with the Government, as recommended by Pay Commissions. As notifications are issued only after approval of the President of India, one has to wait and watch.

Friends,
As of now, no firm date has been announced, and all employees who retired between 2006 and 2010 have to wait and see. The minister's response to a query by G. Sanjeevareddy (a noted Labour Leader) in the Rajya Sabha was not encouraging, and ultimately, the government may opt for a prospective date.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you need any further assistance.

The Gratuity Amendment Bill 2010, raising the ceiling from 3.5 lakhs to 10 lakhs, has been passed in both the Houses of Parliament on 4th & 5th May '10. It seems Gazette Notification is likely to take some time. I am on the verge of retirement from a State Govt. Undertaking where Payment of Gratuity is done as per the Gratuity Act - 1972. My date of Superannuation is 31st Aug. 10. Can I claim the enhanced amount by virtue of the amendment bill passed by parliament? Can anyone suggest on this matter? Thanks, Ashoke Dhole

The Gratuity Amendment Act 2010 was notified by the Government on 21st May 2010. The Amendment came into effect on 24th May 2010.
As for the PSU employees who retired after 01/01/2007, i.e., after the wage revision as per the PRC and approved by the Government, where the gratuity limit was increased to Rs 10 lakhs, it was expected that the Government would consider this favorably. However, it seems that the chapter has closed with this notification. There is discrimination between two sections of employees of the same Government regarding the tax implications.
