It is to be understood that your company is not following the statutory ruling of payment of bonus. If any one pays better that is well and good, but if the employer insists on paying bonus according to the Act, then the new amendment will have to be adhered. Previously, when the salary ceiling was Rs 3500, the bonus of all those whose salary were between 2500 and 3500 were calculated as if their salary were 2500. Now it has been brought as 3500 and those drawing between 3500 and 10000 will be getting bonus calculated at 3500 only.
