Hi,
I have worked in a company for 2 months where yearly bonus was a part of my CTC which was deducted from monthly pay i.e. 643 /- per month. As I have resigned from the company within 2 months with notice period, they are not agreeing to pay the deducted bonus even though it's a part of my CTC.
Please advise if, as per the bonus law, can a company forfeit the employee bonus that is a part of CTC and should be paid at the end of the year.

Usually, if the bonus is part of your salary and is included in the CTC, then the same has to be paid. Check with your appointment letter and share the same with the seniors for a response.
You mention that the bonus is deducted from the salary. Is it shown in the payslip, or are you calculating it from the Salary Annexure provided to you?
Please clarify and provide more details to receive favorable replies from seniors.

Dear Sir,
Normally, a bonus will not be part of your settlement. It will be paid only after the bonus is declared by the company and paid to all existing employees. Some organizations call for an application from the employees, requesting them to send the bonus due to them for the period they have worked with the organization.

Doesn’t yearly bonus mean that the employee should work for a year before he is eligible for it?

According to the Bonus Act of 1965, Section 8 states that any employee who works for 30 days in a calendar year is eligible for a bonus payment. Therefore, you can claim this bonus as during the full and final settlement, the company should settle all dues such as the current month's salary, leave encashment, bonus, and gratuity (if the employee has completed 5 years of service).

Not necessary to work. Yearly calculation from Apr to Mar in the period of time, an employee who works will avail the bonus. The minimum bonus to be paid to employees is at least Rs.100 (for new joiners) or 8.33%.

Hi,
The statutory bonus is obligatory to be paid if you have served a minimum of 30 days in a calendar year. However, it is not obligatory to pay it along with your FnF. The company declares bonus payment within a maximum of 9 months of the completion of the fiscal year. Upon the declaration, it becomes obligatory to pay you the said bonus.

Hi,
Thank you for all the replies. I have already mentioned above that the deducted bonus was a part of my CTC, and as per the terms and conditions mentioned in the appointment letter, it is paid at the end of the financial year.
My concern is, should it be paid to the employee in full and final as per the bonus act if it's a part of the CTC and not a performance bonus that is disbursed at the end of the year?
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
It is not a performance bonus; it is a part of my CTC as per the Annexure of the appointment letter, but the disbursed timing of the same is not mentioned in the appointment letter. Please suggest if the employer is acting against the law as it's part of my monthly salary and not based on performance, which should be paid only after the end of the year.

Actually, it is not called a Bonus. It is referred to as a variable component of your CTC, which can be paid by the company or cannot be. In my company, the bonuses listed in the annexure are given according to the PMS, not based on the profit or loss of the company. It also complies with the POB Act.

First, what is your salary? Pay, net of a bonus, is not applicable for anyone paid a wage/salary of more than $10,000 per month.
Second, CTC is only an indicator of the total cost to the company in the normal course. You cannot enforce CTC unless specified in the appointment letter as a component of your salary.
Third, it was never deducted from your salary. It is a part of the CTC but not a part of gross pay as it is not a monthly wage component. Most probably, you are not eligible for a bonus.
