Quick Summary
A central government employee received Rs 23 lakhs in gratuity, which is fully tax-exempt. However, when filing their ITR1 online, they encountered an error stating that only Rs 20 lakhs can be claimed as exempt. Despite selecting 'Central Government Employee', both online and offline utilities showed this error. It appears to be a glitch in the system, and the user has been advised to file a grievance.

Gratuity paid by the government to government employees is fully exempt from tax.

Check the category of the employer which you may have selected.

Yes I have selected Central Government Employee than also on line Portal and Off line both give error and mentioned that only Rs20lakhs allowed

One more glitch in the utility. File complaint under Grievances.
