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.

Reasons not to join HCL ??
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

If you’re actually going to work from home, tell them why it’ll make you more productive (i.e. “I don’t have meetings today and have a lot of independent writing to do so I’d be less distracted if I worked from home tomorrow”) hope that helps!
This helps!! Appreciate it
WFH is hard when you’re a CW/AD pair
asking to WFH opens the door for them saying no...
is there a formal wfh policy? if you definitely want to be home you should call in sick and say you'll WFH when you can. food poisoning is a good one for a 24 break. you'll be better by monday.
Call in for a sick day, or let them know you’re going to be work from home as you need to be there to let in and be there for (maintenance / utility / whatever) workers
I’ve told my boss I just need a day not at the office. We do have a wfh policy but he and I have a solid relationship and he’s always supportive so I just tell him the truth. But if you can’t just say you don’t feel well and you’re working from home. You can pull that card every now and then. You have the right.
If you’re actually going to work from home just don’t want to be in office I’ve had people say they had a flood, were expecting repairmen, etc. If u are burnt out and want a mental health day just call in sick.
