In case of Bonus payment Mr. Pankaj is correct, but subject to a salary ceiling of Rs. 3500.
Abbas.P.S

Dear Santosh Kumar,
The bonus will be calculated on the Basic Salary. The ceiling for the same has been raised to 10,000/- but can be restricted to 3500/- P.M.
If your company is new than you can pay them 8.33% per month
i.e. 3500/8.33%*12
Any how if you want to pay 20% i.e. after 5 year you can pay the same as Ex-gratia 11.67%. This should be paid before 8 months ending of Financial Year.
I.e Financial year April to Mar. Payemnt should be done before November of the next preceeding year.
Hope you are clear now.
Regards,
SIDMAN
