Hi Suresh,
I do not know anything about bonus act. But as i am employee of company i will like to get bonus every year. Even though it is purely 8.33% on basic annual salary. For eg if your organization is paying 4250 Rs as basic salary to any employee than he is eligible to get 4250 Rs as a Bonus. Again this has to be mentioned in the CTC your organization issue to employee every year on their increment letter. If nothing is mentioned it is purely based on company performance and yes there is a tap to every thing in income-tax.
May be this might help you
