Understanding the Payment of Bonus Act 1965
The Payment of Bonus Act 1965 states that 8.33% is equivalent to one month's salary, up to 20%, which is equivalent to two and a half months' salary. This is the maximum bonus a company can pay according to the Payment of Bonus Act 1965. The actual bonus amount depends on the company's policy, allocable surplus, and available surplus. Bonuses are calculated based on Basic + DA.

As per the Payment of Bonus Act 1965, a bonus is payable on basic wages. If the company is giving D.A. to workers, then D.A. should also be considered in this calculation.
Computation of Bonus
For the computation of the bonus, Rs. 3500/- per month as basic will be considered and will be reflected as per the paydays of employees. The maximum limit for the payment of the bonus is 20%, and the minimum is 8.33%. Bonuses will be payable on an annual basis, and the period will be the accounting year, which is April to March. For further clarification, you can contact me.

Definition of "Salary or Wage" Under the Bonus Act
Under the Bonus Act, the definition of "Salary or wage" means all remuneration (other than remuneration in respect of overtime work) capable of being expressed in terms of money. This remuneration would be payable to an employee if the terms of employment, express or implied, were fulfilled, or for work done in such employment. It also includes dearness allowance, which refers to all cash payments, by whatever name called, paid to an employee on account of a rise in the cost of living.
There is a deficit in the definition of salary/wage regarding whether the Bonus is applicable to basic and DA only or if it includes all allowances for the cost of living (as per the above statement). Please provide supporting documents or proof for clarification.
