Dear All,
Our company, which was formed 1.5 years ago, currently has 30 employees from the inception date. I am inquiring about the necessity of paying bonuses at this stage, considering the company is still in its early phases. Your guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Dear Sir,
I appreciate your quick response. Thank you. I'd like to know if the Act states that it is not mandatory to pay a bonus if the company has not completed 5 years from the date of formation. Is that correct? Please guide.

As per the Payment of Bonus Act, a newly formed company is exempted from paying bonuses to its employees for the first five years. However, if the company generates profits during these five years, it becomes the company's liability to pay a bonus (minimum 8.33%) to its employees.

Consider the following scenario:
A company in its 2nd year with 50 employees. Its profit is Rs. 50,000. If 8.33% of wages equals Rs. 100,000, will the company distribute the Rs. 50,000 as a bonus? If yes, then is the bonus less than 8.33% (minimum)? What happens in this scenario?
