Gratuity Actually received
Dear, your given provision is correct but sorry i not required the provisions and also it is not my question. i simply asked that in case of during the employment any Govt. employee recieved gratuity is it exempt?? if Yes then why?
Gratuity is payable to eligible Employee at the time of retirement or when Employee have resigned from an organisation,. During the employment gratuity is not payable.

So, there is no question of Exempt or taxable during the employment.
