Frequently asked questions
Which salary does the calculator use?
It uses the last monthly basic salary entered. Confirm the legally applicable wage components for your individual case.
Are partial years included?
Yes. The estimate prorates eligible fractions of a year where the relevant rule permits it.
Does resignation change the result?
Ordinary resignation does not create a separate reduction in this estimate, but statutory exclusions and individual facts can still matter.
Can misconduct affect gratuity?
Potentially. The misconduct option returns zero where statutory dismissal grounds can forfeit the award; final classification requires legal review.
Is this a final settlement?
No. It is an informational estimate and should be checked against payroll records, the employment contract and current official guidance.
