The employees who have completed their services with the organization and attained the age of superannuation, at the time of their superannuation, they have also received the Gratuity up to the maximum ceiling, i.e., Rs 20 Lakhs.

Again, after completing their services, if they join as re-employed anywhere and complete another 5 years, would they be entitled to receive Gratuity from that employer?

If yes, kindly explain under which provision of the Gratuity Act or any decision given by the Supreme Court of India. Kindly help me, please.

The maximum tax-free gratuity is Rs 20 Lakhs. In the next organization, if he works for five years and draws gratuity, he will have to pay tax on the full amount.

For employees covered under the Act, there is a formula using which the amount of gratuity payable is calculated. The formula is based on 15 days of the last drawn salary for each completed year of service or part thereof in excess of six months. The formula is as follows: (15 x last drawn salary x tenure of working) divided by 26.

For employees not covered under the Act, there is no law that restricts an employer from paying gratuity to his employees even if the organization is not covered under the Act. The amount of gratuity payable to the employee can be calculated based on half a month's salary for each completed year. Here also, salary is inclusive of basic, dearness allowance, and commission based on sales. The formula is as follows: (15 x last drawn salary x tenure of working / 30).

I hope it is clear.
