Dear All, I'm having confusion while structuring the Salary Components. Below is the scenario:

Salary Structure Scenario

If an employee's salary is Rs. 11,500/- Gross, then his basic salary would be either 50% of the Gross or whatever the minimum wages are. Correct me here if I am wrong. The basic salary we have taken is Rs. 10,650/-.

HRA Calculation

Then after basic, HRA is supposed to be 40% or 50% of Basic, depending upon the city criteria, whether it is a metro or non-metro. Alternatively, we can also put the remaining amount in the HRA if it is below 40%.

Bonus Component

Now, we also have a bonus component in the monthly gross salary and not in CTC. So, what should I prioritize? Should I ensure HRA is fulfilled with the remaining amount or focus on the Bonus?

Please revert to this situation along with the authentication proof.

As far s possible and unless you have Dearness Allowance as part of salary, put the notified minimum wages as basic salary. The rest you can decide. But the bonus cannot be part of gross salary.
