I have a small query :

While calculating Gratuity in "Income from Salaries" head the Max. Limit of Gratuity before was Rs.350,000/- and now it is Rs.10,00,000/- so please let me know which one is applicable to this Nov 2010 Tax Paper ?

Whether we have to consider Rs.350,000/- or Rs.10,00,000/- for the purpose of Nov 2010 and will it be Rs.10,00,000/- for May 2011 Exams ?

Thank You !

when i referred tax amended supplimentary, there is no any guideline 4 gratuity,

and faiz is right, because in the maonth of w.e.f may 2010 gratuity limits is extended 2 Rs.10,00,000, but becauses of 6 month ka criteria, so just short of 1 month, so that why this exteded limits is not applicable 2 nov 2010 attempt.
