An establishment will get infancy protection from the application of Payment of Bonus Act for a maximum period of five years or till the year in which the establishment makes profits whichever is earlier. That means if the establishment makes profit in the first year itself, then it should pay bonus from that first year itself. Once the Act becomes applicable to a company, then it should continue to pay bonus even if it suffers loss in the subsequent years.
Payment of bonus of contract workers is not your responsibility but the contractor should pay it.

Firstly Many Thanks to you for quick response.
Our Firm is a Labour contractor of construction field. here we have regular employees and Labours through non registered sub contractors (frequent in and out) as well.
My query is whether Labor Contractor as an employer is under exempted employers list? of BONUS act ? in fact we do not have any contract employee.
some where I read " employees of a contractor in construction filed are exempted of bonus act." is it so?

It is true that as per section 32 certain employees are not covered by Payment of Bonus Act and sun clause (vi) of section 32 mandated that employees of contractors engaged in building construction are not under the purview of the Act. But the same has been removed by an amendment. unfortunately, the notification is not available with me right now. I am trying to get it. Once I get it, I will share it to all.
