The Ministry of Labour and Employment has clarified that the enhanced limit of gratuity for the private sector workers will be effective from March 29, 2018 only, in a notification issued on its website. The government in March had notified doubling of the limit of tax-free gratuity to Rs. 20 lakh in the private sector. The Payment of (Gratuity) Amendment Bill, 2018 was passed by the Lok sabha and Rajya Sabha and received assent from the President on March 28, 2018.
