The amount of my gratuity as per gratuity Act calculated to Rs.10, 67,833.00 & as per OSR Rs.6, 65,650.00 and I believe the amount of gratuity are calculated both as per gratuity act & as per OSR and maximum out of both amount are payable to the officer as gratuity but the benefit of exemption of Tax available only to Rs.10,00,000.00.
But I have received only Rs.10, 00,000.00 lacs as gratuity less Rs.67, 833/- calculated as per gratuityThanks & Warm Regards,

H.K.VermaAs per the Gratuity Act, the Maximum amount payable at present is
Rs.10.00lacs and even though as per the calculations in individual cases, it
crosses the limit of Rs.10.00lacs only Rs.10.00lacs is being paid. It may be
observed that earlier when the limit was Rs.3.50lacs as per the Gratuity
act, the amount calculated as per the provisions of OSR was usually more
than the limit of Rs.3.50lacs under Gratuity act and higher amount as per
OSR was being paid. But for the amount paid more than the limit of
Rs.3.50lacs,the Income Tax was applicable. However, after enhancing the
Gratuity limit, the amount under gratuity act works out to be more than
that under OSR and in some of the individual cases it may cross even the
enhanced limit of Rs.10.00lacs but paid only Rs.10.00lacs as per the limit
imposed. This is the case cited below.
