Frequently asked questions

Who is eligible for statutory bonus in India?

Employees earning up to ₹21,000 per month in establishments covered by the Payment of Bonus Act are eligible, after working at least 30 days in the accounting year. Above that salary, any bonus paid is typically ex-gratia at the employer's discretion.

How is bonus calculated under the Payment of Bonus Act?

Bonus is 8.33% to 20% of wages for the months worked. Wages for this calculation are capped at ₹7,000 per month. This calculator prorates by employment duration (1–12 months).

Why is the bonus calculated on ₹7,000 even if my salary is higher?

The Act caps the wage used for bonus at ₹7,000 per month. That ceiling was last revised in 2015. If you earn more, the extra salary does not increase statutory bonus.

Is bonus taxable in India?

Yes. Statutory bonus is taxable as salary. Your employer typically deducts TDS if applicable. This tool estimates the bonus amount only — not tax.

Is this calculator free?

Yes. It runs in your browser with no signup. Your salary stays on your device.
