There is nothing called the Karnataka Bonus Act 1965. It is the Payment of Bonus Act 1965 (Central Act). There may be any bonus rule for Karnataka. I have no idea.
Bonus Payment Guidelines
Bonus should be paid as per the PB Act, 1965, considering available surplus, allocable surplus, Set On & Set Off.
I would request you to read the PB Act once to understand the law.
