BONUS CEILING NOT RAISED



GOVERNMENT ORDERED ADHOC BONUS WITHOUT CHANGING CEILING TO 3500/= FOR NON-PLB DEPARTMENTS.



The Bonus ceiling was revised last year by amending the Bonus Act but the benefit of enhancement to 3500/= from 2500/= was not extended to Central Government Employees at that time. As the same was expected to be enhanced for the current year bonus for 2007-2008, it is a shock for us to come to know that the Government has announced adhoc bonus to other than PLB covered CG Employees without changing the bonus ceiling at all.
