Hi fellow fishies!
Can someone please explain what is “SUPPLEMENTARY allowance” in my payslip??? It is the highest in my entire payslip, more than basic salary. Basic is lets say ₹7 lac annually and supplementary bonus is ₹7 lac 40 thousand.
Can someone please explain why this exists in my paylslip, is it good or bad from tax perspective and shall I ask my HR to decrease it???
Please help asap.

I just hit $200k NW and it’s been 7 months since I made my post (link below) about hitting $100k NW in Dec ‘21.
I’m just mind-blown since it took me 2.5 years to get the first $100k and it’s snowballed from there. I’ve gone from $82.5k TC to $238k TC plus a $20k appreciation on a house I bought at the beginning of the year
Can’t really talk about finances with friends/family so this is the only place I can share milestones like this haha…we’ll see if I can hit $300k by EOY

You are already being paid the salary of many experienced Advisory Managers (I know DC pay is a little higher). I would suggest having very low expectations when it comes to your pay increase.
Good luck!
Former Deloitte SM here. $159K as an SC is rare. How many years of experience do you have? Do you have specialized degrees or technical experience/qualifications? Most GPS managers start well below what you’re making FYI. I wouldn't expect more than 5-8% in raise given where you are in the band.
What did you see as the pay band for SM ( base + bonus, separately please)
