Dear Anil,
As per section 8 of Bonus Act if employee has work for 30 working days then can be eligible for bonus in that year. Here out of 41 days you can count number of working days and if it is 30 or more than that then that employee is eligible for bonus. And you can pay him bonus as per his earnings.

Please note if the basic is Rs.16000/- per month the bonus will be calculated as under:-
Suppose 1st full month - salary earned Rs.16000/-
Next month (41-30=11) - salary earned Rs.5867/- Total Rs.21867/-
Bonus = Earned wage x %age of bonus (Say 21867*8.33% i.e. minimum = Rs.1822/-)
(Percentage depends upon the allocable surplus for the year)
But please make sure that the person concerned must have worked for at least 30 days in the accounting year. The minimum wages of your State does not matter in this case. According to the notification where minimum wage in any State is less than Rs.7000/- per month, the wage for bonus purpose will be taken in to account at Rs.7000/- per month and in other cases Rs.7000/- or actual wage which is higher.

Sorry, the above working is wrong.
Bonus is to be paid on actual bonus subject to a ceiling of ₹7000 or minimum wages, whichever higher.
Since min wages is higher,,that will be taken into account.
Please compute his total basic for the entire period of his working with you, computed at min wages level, and give bonus on 8.33% of that amount.
However, if the allocable surplus is higher (effectively meaning you are highly profitable), you will need to pay @20% not 8.33%. This will then need to be paid to the employee at the time of disbursement of bonus next year. Mostly people don't bother with that actually.
