11 October 2022 Hello,

Greetings for the day

We have to pay bonus of our contractual workmen (Workers on contract basis working under contractor's payroll) who are paid on monthly basis but as per present days in a month.

Out of 365 days in a year there are mandatory holidays also like 26th Jan., 15th Aug., 1st May., Holi, Diwali etc (excluding 52 weekly offs).

SO my query is is there any maximum days limit for calculation of bonus payable ..?

Your expertise will help me for calculation the bonus sheet.

Thanks in advance.
