Gratuity received by pnb employee


15 July 2017 Dear Sir,

Gratuity received by PNB Employee rs. 10,00,000/- on retirement after 32 years of service. Is there any special exemption to PNB Emplyees for gratuity or the provisions of Gratuity Act 1972 will apply ? Is whole gratuity is exempt from tax>

Please reply.

15 July 2017 As per the provision of Income Tax Act. Any gratuity received by an employee of the Central Government, State Government or local authority, on death or retirement is fully exempt from tax.

15 July 2017 Dear Sir,

In present case gratuity is received on the retirement of an employee of punjab national bank. Is it fully exempt?


15 July 2017 Any gratuity received by an employee of the Central Government, State Government or local authority, on death or retirement is fully exempt from tax.

15 July 2017 Dear Sir,

I agree with that.

My question is that is Punjab National Bank fall in that category?

15 July 2017 Yes, PNB falls in this category.

16 July 2017 I don't think so.

Employee of a Public sector Bank is not a Central govt or state govt or local authority employee. So, it is exempt only as per the provisions.

17 July 2017 Dear Sir,

I am confused from above replies. Because as per provisions there is a tax liability arising around Rs. 50,000/- otherwise no tax. Please clarify? Please mention any case law regarding this problem.
