@ jgm
no specific direction by any authority, agreement between management and labour union regarding payment of additional gratuity at the time of retirement

@ Amir Shaikh - In that case, the exemption should be available. Having said this, you could also evaluate whether the said amount can be treated as capital receipt or not

@ Hiranmayee - Can you please elaborate as to under which circumstance this situation has arisen?

@ jgm thank you very much .
