Gratuity calculation - basic + special pay - clarification - reg.

Snmurthykala (Querist) 14 February 2017 This query is : Resolved
Sir,
I served in one NGO Hospital for 6 years and resigned 9 months ago. My salary breakup was as under:

Basic: Rs.6660; HRA Rs.2664; Special Pay Rs. 7326/-.

While settling the gratuity payable, the Management has not been considered the 'Special Pay' saying that 'Special Pay' cannot be taken into account while calculating the 'Gratuity' which will be calculated on the basis of 'Basic' only. Kindly advice as to whether the 'Special Pay' be considered in the absence of ' Dearness Allowance '. Kindly clarify.
