1. 5 Real Reasons Why Delay

Reason 1: Payroll Batch Issue
TCS, Infosys process in 3-4 batches. Last batch gets 1-2 days late - 60% cases.

Reason 2: KYC or IFSC Wrong
Salary account KYC pending or IFSC changed after merger - credit fails.

Reason 3: Rating Pending
100% bonus only if rating 3+. Manager did not submit rating - hold.

Reason 4: TDS Delay
1 Lakh bonus needs extra TDS calc - 1 day late vs 50K.

Reason 5: Joined After March 31, 2026
Not eligible for full bonus -pro-rata only.
