There is no maximum limit for bonus. But statutory bonus shall not exceed 20% of the wages paid during the year. Wages for the calculation of bonus shall mean Rs 7000 per month or the minimum wages notified by the respective state government whichever is higher. If, in respect of your industry, no minimum wages has been notified by your state, then you can take Rs 7000 as the base for calculation of bonus. depending upn the availability of profits you can fix the rate of bonus which shall not be lower than 8.33%.
