QUOTE(CKJMark @ Sep 15 2011, 09:46 AM) The tax rate depends on your total income. There is no specific rate of tax for gratuity. i thought certain retirement gratuity was tax free?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 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 |

(1) Sums received by way of gratuity on retirement from an employment- (a) if the Director General is satisfied that the 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 compulsory age of retirement pursuant to a contract of employment or collective agreement at the age of 50 but before 55 and that employment has lasted for ten years with the same employer or with companies in the same group: |
