I work in a very small company and am paid Rs. 5000 per month in a lump sum cash payment. My salary is not broken down into components like Basic, DA, HRA, CA, etc. Additionally, deductions such as TDS, EPF, and PT do not apply to my case given the salary amount and the number of employees.

Could someone please advise me on how to display the breakdown of my salary in the 'salary certificate' and 'salary payslip,' and what details should be included?

Thank you!

But can you advise me some breakup? If I show 'consolidated', it will look suspicious I think. Can there be allowances if salary is paid by cash?

You haven't mentioned how many people work in your company. You mentioned a salary of 5k, but why are they not entitled to PF? Anyways, if you want to break down the salary, you can consider taking 50% of 5000 as Basic, 40-50% as HRA, 800 for conveyance, etc. However, it's quite confusing as you mentioned that no such deductions are done and no contribution either.

Hi Vikram, thanks a lot. But there is no TDS because my salary is below taxable slab. How did you put TDS then? Also, can I make monthly salary slip with these details you provided instead of salary certificate?

Exclude the TDS part. However, you can prepare the salary slips in this format. This is usually used by start-up companies. If you work in a CA's office, please note that new rules state that even a company with just one employee needs to register under EPF and ESI, and deductions must be made.

Are you sure? I thought the rule for EPF is a minimum of 10 employees, mine has only 5. Do you have any links about this new rule? Also, can I omit some allowances from your list like medical?

Thank you so much.

Google the rule about EPF and ESI. And also YES you can take our some points like medical, but ussually medical benifits are found on every company’s payslip — -Vikram

Oh okay, because I read somewhere that medical allowance has some other complicated rules, so I just felt like omitting it.
