Gratuity Claim in ITR

My employer provided me a gratuity of ₹2.3 lakhs upon completion of 5 years, but they did not include it in my Form 16. I have requested a revision, but it has not been updated yet.

What should I do if my employer fails to provide the revised Form 16? Should I declare it in my ITR submission? If so, what proof should I keep?

Quick Summary
If your employer has failed to include your gratuity payment in your Form 16, you should still declare it in your Income Tax Return (ITR). It's advisable to keep bank statements showing the gratuity payment clearly marked as such, along with any communication from your employer confirming its nature. This documentation will serve as proof for your claim.

Any documentry ecidence the  amount is gratuity by nature?

Bank Statement : says by employer + Gratuity in the Feb 24 statement
