Dear Sir / Madam,
No, the Gratuity amount received from the previous employer is not considered while calculating gratuity amount by the current employer. Only the eligibility for Gratuity with the current employer begins from day one of service. There is no ceiling on the amount of Gratuity - the formula is one half month's salary for each year of completed service with the current employer i.e 5 years.
Regards,
