Unless you had rendered 5 years service you are not entitled to gratuity.
CTC means cost to the company. It is not take home pay of the employee. Non-mentioning the condition of 5 year service in the increment letter will not make you eligible, as gratuity is payable as per Gratuity Act.

There are many threads at LCI and various other forums on similar query.There are posts by employees affirming that they succeeded to get Gratuity if mentioned in CTC.
It is unethical practice to mention Gratuity in CTC sheet annexed to employee.
Your counsels in employee's/trade unions, Labor Law Consultant may opine that CTC is annual pay package and promised amount.
Gratuity can be paid by sweet will of employer also.
Apply your skills and if required lean on your counsels and sustain and persist.Like others you may also succeed.

You are not entitled for gratuity till you complete service required by statutory period.
Item in CTC can be for Balance sheet and tax purpose.

Don't give up without trying.
CTC is negotiated settlement/fruit of labor/promised amounts.
There are opinions that employee may approach Civil Suit for recovery, authority under Payment of wages Act etc.
There era companies those pay Gratuity even if employee leaves before 5 years.
There era many threads that you may pursue e.g;
