There has been an amendment in payment of bonus act by an ordinance issued in 2007 which mandates an organisation to give bonus to employees drawing wages or salary upto rs. 10000.
1) Please let me know if the 'wages' or 'salary' reffered to in the act means basic salary or gross salary.
2) My friend is having a problem in getting his bonus because his company is saying the act refers to gross salary(and his is greater than 10000) while i have seen companies handing out bonus on basic salary.
3) Is there any govt. document my friend can show to his company to show that the act refers to basic salary.What can he do? please guide.

Dear All
Allthough the ceiling is 10000 and the payable amount is 35oo/- nowadays limited companies are adding bonus in the employees Cost to the Company to avoid the issues. Bonus minimum percentage is 8.33% and the maximum depends upon the Company's willing and the profit generated for the budget year. I think you have understood.
Thanks & Regards

Bonus is mendatory if the Salary is not above 10000 and will be calculated on Rs. 3500 (Min 8.33 to Max 20%)
But if your salary exceeds 10000 then it is on employer's will
