Bonus Calculation


Bonus=Total amount of salary earned in the service of 1 year*8.33%

PFA for more details which I have got from web

As per Max Bonus Act
Bonus=Total amount of salary earned in the service of 1 year *20%(max)

I hereby elaborate the difficulties; I have faced in this respect:
1. Is the earned salary (basic + DA) per month or total basic salary + DA per month will compare with Rs.3500/- for taking as a base for calculate earned salary per month for the bonus. (For example: If a person’s basic salary + DA in a month is Rs 5000/- and his earned salary for that month is Rs.3400/-. Then for that month which amount - i.e. Rs. 5000/-, Rs. 3400/-or Rs 3500/- we have to consider as a base salary to calculate earned salary).
2. If the basic salary + DA will compare with 3500/- to consider as a base salary for the calculation of earned salary, can the calculated earned salary per month be more than 3500/-. ( for example : If a Person’s basic salary + DA in a month is Rs 3450/-and he worked for 27 days ( due to also worked on his allowed w/off) in month instead of his 26 working days ( after deducting weekly offs) in that month. In this case his earned salary for that month is 3450/26*27= 3582/-. Than for that month which amount we have to consider for the calculation of bonus - i.e. Rs 3582/- or Rs 3500/-).
3. In bonus calculation which days we consider as total working days either total days of the month (for example for April - 30 days, for May – 31 days) or total days of the month after deduct allowed weekly off (for example for April - 30 days less 4 weekly off being 4 Sundays, for May – 31 days less 5 weekly off, being 5 Sundays) or days for which he worked including Leaves with wages.
4. In respect of above 3rd point total working days for staff members and workers will be same or not.
5. As it has been comes to my notice that there is requirement to maintain A, B, C registers for bonus calculation. Is there any register named ‘D’, if yes what is the format & filing procedure for same. Except bonus i have one more query regarding Leave encashment That Leave encashment is done on basic Salary or Gross Salary(Basic+Allowances+PF)
