Dear Abhinesh,

Gratuity received by employee is taxable under head salary & Income under head salary is taxable on receipt or due whichever is earlier basis.

So in this case Gratuity becomes due on 31st March 2010 & will be taxable in PY 2009-2010(AY 2010-11)

One more thing since amount of gratuity is not received in the PY in which it is taxable so the Exemption u/s 10 shall not be available. 

Amir is right here, Gratuity becomes due on 31st March 2010 & will be taxable in PY 2009-2010(AY 2010-11).
