Hi Mahesh,
The Bonus Amendment Act 2010, enhancing coverage limit to Rs. 15,000, payment limit to Rs. 5,000, and minimum to 11%, has not been implemented yet. According to the current norms, the ceiling salary limit for bonus payment is Rs. 3,500. If the employee does not have full attendance, the calculation can be done simply by multiplying 3,500 by basic salary and then by 8.33%. The employee must present at least a minimum of 10 days.
Thank you.

Dear Kannan,
The ceiling monthly salary for bonus coverage is Rs. 10,000, and for bonus payment, it is Rs. 3,500. Monthly salary is meant for one month, i.e., if the salary is between Rs. 3,500 and Rs. 10,000 and the attendance is below one month, the calculation will be on a pro-rata basis based on Rs. 3,500 only (not on the actual salary).
For example, an employee with a salary of Rs. 6,000 has worked for 15 days out of 30 days in a month. His entitled salary for bonus payment for that particular month is calculated as 3,500 x 15/30 = Rs. 1,750.

Dear Seniors,
I have come across some problems, please clarify them. An employee's salary is as follows:
- Gross salary: 12000 /-
- Basic: 5500 /-
He is working in staff. Will he be eligible to receive a bonus? If yes, please confirm what percentage and on which amount we should calculate the bonus.
Thank you.

Dear Ashok, In my opinion none of the enactment asks us to put bonus payment in CTC. Moreover bonus percentage is declared by the management after the close of the accounting year. R.N.KHOLA
