Gratuity calculation for onsite

For the purpose of calculation of gratuity your last drawn salary (only the basic and D.A.) should be considered. The Payment of Gratuity Act is very clear about that. Kindly go through it.

Calculate your gratuity on line through this website. https://www.moneycontrol.com/personal-finance/tools/gratuity-calculator.html

Thanks Ritesh for the reply.  But for the onsite HR is calculating  last salary drawn from India 7 years ago. Is this per law or they should consider last salary drawn at onsite? Offcourse I will go throgh the Grauity act but is this scenario clearly mentioned .

Thanks , Yogita

There is law that gratuity should be calculated on last drawn salary.

In some threads it is posted by querists that employer agreed to pay Gratuity @ wages  last drawn as in India. 

Atleast I am happy to note that employers in your/private sector have been agreeing to pay Gratuity for Foreign assignments.

Which establishment was processing salary and disbursing for payment to you?

Parent establishment that deputed to you?

Do you have service rules mentioning payment of  Gratuity/ERx. Gracia for foreign assignment?

It is contentitious issue and need to prove that:in your case there cannot be any other conclusion but to hold that the service on deputation/foreign assignment has to be treated as equivalent to service in his parent department.
