Bonus Act_Practical Problems_27

We are a charitable institution engaged in social welfare activities and establishment without any object of making profit. Please advise us whether we are liable to pay bonus to our employee under The Payment of Bonus Act, 1965 since our employees are demanding the same.

It is understood that the institution is engaged in social welfare activities and is not established for making profit therefore it squarely falls within the exemptions specified by clause(c) of section 32 of the Bonus Act. Therefore no bonus is admissible under the Act. Please refer to the case of Swarajya Ashram Karmachari Sangh v. swarajya Ashram., 1995 I LLJ 486 (S.C.)
