The tax rate depends on your total income.  There is no specific rate of tax for gratuity.

If you are asking whether your gratuity is tax free, that will depend on:-

- why did you retire? (ill health, compulsory age, etc)
- how long did you serve with the company
- what age did you retire at

i thought certain retirement gratuity was tax free?

Lets say compulsory at 56 years old
Served for 25 years

Therefore at 1 month pay @30k per year of service gratuity,

= 30 x 25 = 750K

Hows the taxation like?

Thanks

25. (1) Sums received by way  of gratuity on retirement
from an employment-

retirement was due to ill-health; or
(b) if the retirement takes place on or after reaching
the age of 55, or on reaching the compulsory age of
retirement from employment specified under any
written law and in  either case from an employment
which has lasted ten years with the same employer
or with companies in the same group; or

© if the retirement takes place on reaching the
