In most of the cases gratuity is deducted @ 4.81% of basic. why the rate is taken as 4.81%. was it anywhere mentioned under the payment of gratuity act? if yes, under which section?

Gratuity is applicable to those emoloyee who have completec continues 5 or more year services. They should worked 240 days in every year. Gratuity is payable 15 days per every working years. is any employee worked more then 6 month then count it as full year and if less then 6 month then avoid it in calculation
Gratuity = Basic Salary / 26 * years of service * 15 days i.e. if Mr X was working since last 8 years and 7 month and he left the service and his last basic was 6000/- per month then Gratuity amount = 6000/26*9*15 = 31154
