The Finance Ministry has set a limit of Rs 7000 for calculating non-productivity linked bonuses (ad-hoc bonuses) for central government employees for 2022-23.
The Department of Expenditure under the Finance Ministry said in an office memorandum that a non-productivity based bonus (NPL) equivalent to 30 days' emoluments will be granted to Group C employees and all Group B non-gazetted employees of the central government for the accounting year 2022-23.

2) The quantum of Non-PLB (Ad-hoc Bonus) will be determined based on average emoluments/calculation limit, whichever is lower. To calculate non-PLB (ad-hoc bonus) for a day, the average emoluments in a year will be divided by 30.4 (average number of days in a month). After this, it will be multiplied by the number of days of bonus given. For example, the calculation limit of ₹7000 (where actual average emoluments are more than ₹7000) taking non-PLB (Ad-hoc Bonus) for thirty days would be ₹7000x30/30.4- ₹6907.89 (up to ₹6908).
