Eligibility For Bonus - Bonus Eligibility [Thread 56009]

Hello to All,
I am working with the small software company as HR Executive and this is my first experience over here.
As Diwali is coming our employees are asking for Bonus having the salary less than 10000/m.
But as per to my knowledge Festival Bonus is not given in software industry.
Is it correct? Or i am wrong? So plz help me by clarifying my doubt whether Bonus should be given to employees(engineers) of IT industries or not?
Thanks & Regards,
Manisha

Employee is the Asset,,,
Diwali comes once in a year,,,,
Management can decide for the Benefit of Employees....

Hello,
Yes you are right, Diwali comes once in a year for that we are distributing sweet boxes to them. So may i know is it enough or some monitory benefit should be there?
Waiting for reply
Thanks & Regards,
