No. It is not allowed.
Bonus can be paid only once a year, which is after preparation of form A and B. And to be paid within 8 months of end of the financial year.
You are allowed to set off customary bonus, but that too is set off of one customers bonus. It needs to be customary for the industry or the company. Monthly payment is not customary bonus.
Any money paid monthly is a part of wages and salary, so if bonus paid monthly, then it's no longer bonus but a part of gross wages. So you will be required by law to pay it again

Mr.Rahul,
I agree with Mr.Banerjee. The Bonus payment to be paid once in a year after company"s accouts finalized for tax computation. Payment of Bonus shall be kept in provisional in balance sheet as payable. Form A and Form B ie set off and allocable surplus etc to be maintained. Payment of bonus on mon thly basis does not fall within the purview of the Payment of Bonus Act.

I would disagree.
Even if the profit is enough to pay minimum bonus, the fact that you have paid bonus monthly would make that payment a part of wages and salaries. The company will be liable to pay bonus again at the end of the year / 8 months from end of the year.

Dear Mr. Rahul,
As per Bonus Act 1965 Bonus paid once in an year because bonus is not part of wages & salary . The Employers paid bonus to their profit .
and Employer will not be liable to paid bonus in beginning of company.
