As per provisions of Section I of Part II of Schedule XIII to the Companies Act, 1956, subject to the provisions of sections 198 and 309, a company may pay any remuneration, by way of salary, dearness allowance, perquisites, commission and other allowances, which shall not exceed 5% of its net profits for one such managerial person, and if there is more than one such managerial person, 10% for all of them together. Section 309(3) provides that managerial personnel may be paid remuneration either by way of a monthly payment or at specified percentage of the net profits of the company or partly by one way and partly by the other. In case if remuneration exceeds 5% or 10% as the case may be, it cannot be paid without the approval of the Central Government.
But these limits are not applicable to Pvt. Ltd. Companies.
