Friends,
I understand that the IT Law provides for IT releief for Gratuity amounts upto Rs 10 Lacs.
Taking this as the basis, can any company restrict the Gratuity amount to Rs 10 Lacs eventhough the calculation by the formula of (basic salary x no of years of service x15/24) exceeds Rs 10 Lacs. Will it be legally allowed?

Payment of Gratuity Act also fixes the maximum ceiling to be Rs.10 lakhs and hence such limit by a company is justified.

Yes as per law the maximum limit for Gratuity is Rs.10 lakhs and anybody is eligible for 10 lakhs even as per the actual calculation it is more also.
