Yes, the actuarial valuation for gratuity for 12 months will be higher than the actuarial valuation for 3 months.

Actuarial valuation for gratuity is typically calculated using the following factors:

1. _Number of employees_

2. _Salary levels_

3. _Years of service_

4. _Interest rates_

5. _Mortality rates_

A longer valuation period (12 months) means:

1. _More employees_ will be eligible for gratuity

2. _Higher salary levels_ will be considered

3. _More years of service_ will be accounted for

4. _Interest rates_ will be applied for a longer period

5. _Mortality rates_ will be applied for a longer period

This results in a higher actuarial valuation for 12 months compared to 3 months.

The difference in valuation will depend on the specific circumstances, but generally, the 12-month valuation will be higher due to the increased exposure to gratuity liability.
