What is deferred salary? How it is calculated? Is it applicable to all companies or it changes based on the company’s compensation policy?

In a salary cost-to-company basis calculation, there are mainly 3 components of salary:

1) Immediate receivables
2) Deferred Salary
3) Taxes & compulsory deductions.

Focusing on deferred salary:

Gross salary minus the deductions equals the cash in hand salary component. That is: Basic + HRA + Edu All + Conv. + Sp. All + Cash cony = GROSS SALARY (DEDUCT TAXES HERE TO GET CASH IN HAND).

The remaining components of your salary, namely these, are all deferred salary: Company's contribution to PF + Med. p.a + LTA p.a + Any special allowances like upcountry allowance p.a. + Bonus p.a + Entertainment.

Hope this information helps you so far.

Thank you,

Definitely, this has given me some input. But I would also like to know, is there any standard formula or format in which this deferred salary is calculated, and is this payment made on a regular basis (i.e. yearly or every 6 months)?
