Kindly advise on what the deduction would be in lieu of the notice period.
Thanks and regards

Dear arunsinghal1969,
Notice pay is as per the exit clause of the appointment letter. It is compensation given by one party (who broke the contract) to the other party because of the breach of the contract. Whether it will be basic or gross will depend on the exit clause of the appointment letter and company policy. Notice pay should be the same for both parties.

It depends upon the company policy. The trend these days is to deduct as per CTC and not basic salary.
In my opinion, if the appointment letter states that salary for one month would be deducted, it would include the gross pay. Kindly check what has been done in other cases in your organization. You, being the Personnel Manager, must have handled such cases or would have the records in personnel files to know the policy of the company. Hope this could help you.

Hi,
The notice pay depends on the clauses stipulated in the appointment letter itself. When no stipulation is given in the appointment letter regarding the amount that should be allocated towards the notice pay, then to my knowledge, you must pay the entire sum of the last paid wage or salary. The benefit of the doubt goes to the employee in this case, as no proper clause has been included in the appointment letter.
At the time of drafting the appointment letter, we must clearly specify the amount that could be allocated towards the notice pay to avoid any confusion.

Dear Mr. Singhal,
Hello.
It would be better to peruse your appointment letter thoroughly. I hope it will be self-explanatory for your question. It may only cover your basic salary or CTC.

Dear Mr. Sighal,
If your appointment letter is silent on the calculation of deduction of salary, then the following could apply:
1. As per law: one month's basic will be deducted.
2. As per company policy (if not explicitly stated but practiced): basic, gross, or CTC.
You can verify this with the person responsible for processing the payroll.

Yes, like several of our friends in their threads have said:
1. It is Personnel Manager and not Personal Manager.
2. I agree that as a Personnel Manager, you should be aware of such basic things.
3. You should study the exit clause in your Appointment Letter and act accordingly. In the absence of any specific condition, I am afraid it will have to be Gross Pay that will be adjusted against the Notice Period.
Cheers!

Regarding the notice period in lieu, it varies from company to company. Most appointment letters state, "In the event of resignation from service, you will be required to provide one month's notice or pay in lieu of such notice, or pay for the period falling short of the prescribed notice period."
If there is no mention of lieu payment and the salary is fixed for one month, you are required to pay one month's salary in gross.
I am inquiring if any employees have resigned during your tenure. If so, the policy applied to them will also apply to you.

Dear Mr. Arun,
You mentioned that your services can be terminated by either party by giving one month's notice to the other party or by making payment in lieu thereof. Therefore, undoubtedly, you are required to pay Rs. 12000 to your employer towards the notice period to be relieved from your services due to your resignation.
In any organization, salary includes not only Basic, DA, and any other allowance, but also the payment of contributions of ESI, PF, gratuity, and bonus. For all other purposes, it refers to the gross salary of the employee, i.e., Rs. 12000 in your case.
