Who is not included in the circle? – Employees who do not fall under the Central Civil Services rules will not be considered eligible for gratuity. This includes personnel working in banks, port trusts, RBI, PSUs, autonomous institutions, universities or the state government. These institutions function under their own separate rules; therefore, this department does not decide on their cases.<\/p>\n

In simple terms, the increased gratuity limit of Rs 25 lakh will apply only to central government employees covered under the Civil Services Pension Rules 2021 under NPS will get a maximum gratuity of up to Rs 25 lakh. Employees outside the circle are advised to consult their respective departments to determine the regulations applicable to them.<\/p>\n
