Hi friends, I am having some doubts about the bonus. Now, Deepavali is coming, and my company is calculating the bonus. In that bonus, are PF and ESI deductions mandatory or not? Please tell me.

I think the attached file regarding the amendment in the Payment of Bonus Act will answer your question.

Please go through the definition of 'salary or wage' as provided by Section 2(21) of the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965.
