There is not a specific format for Form D but you can generate online.

Bonus year is decided by the accounting year. if you have accounting year from Jan to Dec then Bonus will we made from Jan to Dec and if the accounting year is from April to March then Bonus will be made from April to March.
now coming to your query -
Form C is made for individual bonus details calculation along with many more details as like -

FATHER'S NAME
WHETHER HE HAS COMPLETED 15 YEARS OF AGE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE ACCOUNTING,
NO. OF DAYS WORKED IN THE YEAR,

Total amount of bonus actually paid.
Date on which payment made

Remarks

So it is mandatory to submit the Form C, Form D along with Form A & B

Dear Member,

In our opinion this is not compulsory/mandatory to submit the Form C, Form D along with Form A & B. We are only to submit annual return in Form D to the appropriate Authority. Form A,B, and C are to be maintained by the employer & are to be produced before the Inspecting Authorities at the time of inspection.
