Is Paying Bonuses Mandatory if They're Not Included in Our Offer Letters?

Hello,

We are a 3-year-old IT consulting and staffing company with consultants working at client locations. Our offer letter and CTC do not include a bonus, and we have people with basic salaries ranging from 7000 to 21000.

Could you please guide us on whether bonus payment is mandatory if we don't have a bonus component as part of CTC and the offer letter?

Thanks in advance.

Manoj

You have to pay a bonus to employees earning less than 21000/- per month as they are covered under the Payment of Bonus Act.
