Hi,
I am working on a contract basis at one of the private companies, and I have noticed that my payslip is completely different from what was initially offered to me. The basic salary, bonus, HRA, and gross pay are all different. When I inquired with HR about this discrepancy, they mentioned that they have the right to make changes to the payslip from the original offer. Is this possible?

They cannot change the salary structure at their own wish. You are supposed to get what has been promised to you. Please post here the terms of the offer letter as well as your salary structure for better understanding of the problem. Alternatively, you may consult a local lawyer directly to seek a remedy.

Please read your HR Manual thoroughly to ensure it does not state anything contrary to your understanding. For all legal purposes, the employment letter serves as a binding contract unless it specifically mentions that 'all' terms of employment will be governed by the HR Manual. In general, all HR manuals have overarching provisions authorizing the management to amend it anytime, under intimation to the employees. You would have assented to the HR Manual while taking up the employment. If there is nothing mentioned in the employment letter that can empower the management to make any changes to employment-related provisions through any other policy, your employer is at fault. Please ask them to provide a reference to any provisions that authorized them to opt for such unilateral discretion.
