Hi all,
Quite an interesting discussion. Whether Gratuity should be included in the ctc or not.
Well i worked in companies where in ctc gratuity was added and in another one gratuity was not included in the CTC>
In case gratuity is paid as per the law i.e 4.81% of basic + DA after completion of 5 yrs of service it is not included in the CTC. However if the employer is including the same in the CTC it has to be paid as by showing it in the CTC the same is shown as a part of retention amount and upon termination of employer and employee relationship the same has to be given even if the employee has not completed 5 years of service.

Dear Friends,
Why confusion on Gratuity???? CTC means COST TO COMPANY====any cost/expenses towards emplyees counts as CTC. We should know it. If we are including gratuity and paying without waiting of 5 yrs completion period, it is part of CTC. If don't include, it is also a part of CTC, if we pay after 5 yrs. But We should fix/create two type of CTC:
a) Monthly CTC
b) Annual CTC
If we do like this, our confusion will go away.

Dear Anthony P,
its great to be in Cite HR as a member where we can have a word with seniors like you. Mr Anthony i do have an query of Gratuity:
1) In our company Gratuity in (D-Retirement) is been included in our Monthly Package. my monthly gross is been divided into A-Monthly B-Quaterly C-Annum & D-Retirement Benf (PF + Gratuity+Super Annu.).
Ex: Monthly Gross = 18000 (Divided to 4 category as above)
that mean's my Retirement Benef. Is been included in my gross package.
my query his if am paying my Gratuity from my own monthly gross, so why i should get the same amt which i am paying after 5 yrs only, & if i am leaving the organization before 5 yrs (3yrs) is that i am not eligible for the same to get the amount for that 3yrs.
2) if company is paying the same excluding my monthly gross i hope than we are not eligible for the same, as this amt we will get after completing 5 yrs as per Gratuity act.
can you help me out to understand the Gratuity ACT. or is there any way to take the same from the company.

you could either take it it as whatever the amt a company spend for thee benefit of an employee...u should count every penny spent(in terms of CTC that has to calculated for internal uses) and hile calculating in terms of a salary just exclude the gifts,bonuses sales incentivesetc.

Hi,
My understanding from this discussion is that gratuity is a reward payable on completion of 5 yrs, and that if it is shown to an employee as part of his CTC, it has to be paid even if he does not complete 5 yrs.
If a company includes Gratuity in the CTC package but refuses to pay the amount set aside as Gratuity because the employee has not completed the full 5 yrs, how can we compel the co to pay up?

Hi
Gratuity can not be taken as part of CTC.... unless it is paid by the Company whenever the employee leaves the Company. Otherwise, it shall be paid only on completion of continuous service of 5 years with the Company. So the either the Company or the individual employee are not sure of the continuity of service.
Some of the companies show Gratuity as part of CTC but it is not a fair practice.
Thanks
