It it is statutory bonus then you can not withhold the amount rather your should pay with full & final settlement only.

Bonus as per The payment of Bonus Act, 1965 is not part of F & F.The Company will declare % of Bonus payable for Previous Financial Year after Generation A & B Register.Normally Bonus is disbursed for Employees who are in Service during Dussehra/Diwali.However, Bonus has to be paid on or before 30th November
Employees who are not in Service at the time of Disbursement of Bonus/Ex Employees have to submit their Claim for releasing of Bonus after declaration of Bonus by the Employer.After scrutiny of Claim, Bonus has to be paid to Ex Employees not later than 30th November

Bonus is not a part of F & F Settlement. After complication of financial year company will declare the bonus and who have left the company we can pay him during Diwali or on before 30th November

In addition to the above comments, if the bonus is part of the salary structure communicated to the employee at the time of appointment then it should be paid along with the F&F.
