How to calculate Bonus as per bonus act 1965?

Hi
What exactly you want to know?
You want to know about Allocable surplus and Available surplus?
or you want to know about how to calculate bonus after declaring the percentage?

For example employee is having 10000-Basic salary & he work in a year around 250 days then according to 8.33percentage what would be a bonus amount

Hi
It is not calculated on the number of days worked
It is calculated on the wages earned
I will give example for your question.
Wages Basic per month Rs 10000/
Worked days 250
Assume he has availed paid leav 13
Paid Holidays 7
Total wages earned days 270 days
That is equivalent to 9 months
Total Basic wages earned Rs 90000/

8.33% Bonus 8.33*90000/100 Rs 7497/-
This is the basic priciple.
In an accounting year, sum the persons wages earned.(Including paid leave) Apply the percentage on this amount.
I hope I am clarifying.

Hi
Sorry There was a mistake.
His wages Rs 10000/
Bonusable Wage under the Act Rs 3500
He earns salary for 9 Months 9*3500 = Rs 31500
8.33% Bonus Rs 2623.95 paise

His calculation will be made @ 8.33% of maximum calculable amount of Rs.3500/-. He will be entitled for bonus only when his basic plus DA is less than Rs.10000/-. Even when his basic plus DA is Rs.3501/- or say Rs.3600/- calculation will be made on Rs.3500/-. In case is basic plus DA is less than 3500/- his calculation will be made on actual basic plus DA.
