Hi,
I believe both gratuity and PF are tax-free. They are for the employment spanning more than 12 years in a private software firm. Please confirm. If yes, I would declare along with incomes like dividends.

Akshataji, sorry for the confusion.
It is not exactly retirement due to age. I have resigned and got my PF. Also in our salary, there was a component gratuity. I have received that too

Gratuity recd during job (including resignation) is taxable.
