I am working in an MNC. I just want to know if any worker works more than 8 hours in a day, do we have to give them overtime? So, my question is, should overtime be calculated based on the basic salary or the gross salary?

Welcome to CiteHR. Regarding your query, first, determine under which Act/Rules you are required to pay overtime, and then review the provisions relating to the payment of OT in that Act/Rules.

Overtime Calculation Formula in Manufacturing
We are a manufacturing company, and we use the following formula for overtime (OT) calculation:
OT Formula = Basic / number of working days in a month / number of working hours in a day * 2 * number of OT hours

I think this is the right formula to calculate OT as suggested by Sarojini. Sarojini is a part of our manufacturing company, and we use the following formula for OT calculation:
OT Formula
OT Formula = Basic / no. of working days in a month / no. of working hours in a day * 2 * no. of OT hours

Dear Veeresh,
For your clarification:
1st Step: O.T = Basic / no. of working days in a month. You will get the Basic pay for one day. Now it is to find out the Basic Pay for an Hour (in our concern, I use calculation for minutes). So the next step is,
2nd Step: The result of the 1st step / no. of working hours per day.
3rd Step: The result of the 2nd Step X no. of O.T hours worked.
For example: Basic = 3500.00, No. of Days: 25, No. of working hours: 8, O.T hours = 2. Then,
3500 / 25 / 8 * 2.
