Hi seniors,
Our management has decided to pay three salaries for all employees irrespective of their date of joining or minimum or maximum bonus eligibility as ex-gratia payment but not as bonus.
Is it offence? Because our company define bonus as profit sharing not as gift. Therefore they say this is ex-gratia payment according to our company policy.
Will Labour Inspector under Bonus Act can penalise our company?
Please reply.

There is nothing illegal in it. If a company wishes to pay more to its empoyees it is purely company’s wish. Bonus inspector has nothing to do with it. Ravi
