Bonus and comp raise %?
(I have recently joined IQVIA bangalore. I will receive my first month salary on 25th this month. Payroll portal got just created for me. So, I opened.)
In my reports -> My current CTC section. It has details of Current annual & Monthly AGS. My question is what is AGS? It is showing half of my CTC. Should I raise this to HR or it is just something else. And where can we get the actual CTC reflection? Pls help. Thanks in advance.

If you're a federal employee it's definitely an awkward time to be asking for a raise. Assuming you're not federal, if you had been promised a raise and things seem to have stalled, be bold and bring it up again. Don't worry about sounding pushy or desperate, you've got a legitimate right to know what's going on.
If they're a federal employee, they don't get raises by "asking" or "discussing."
Raises come when they apply to a higher grade and get selected after competing with others who want that job.
The other way that raises come is by staying in the grade and step the required amount of time to get a step increase
I assume you work in local government, so I guess it depends on what things are like in your state or county.
With state and fed revenue transfers is in the toilet or on stall mode. I’d bring up the raise in the 6th month. But if you are beyond a rookie and have some serious experience and other jobs are offering higher pay, then consider the other jobs as you might be stuck in a stalled job that is frozen. If you’re a trades type worker, then scout out other jobs if the current job can’t help make life easier. But if your job is specialized then your odds are limited and might have to ride out your job. Right now is like 2008-2012 and jobs were held as unemployment was insane. So be happy to have a gig instead of being unemployed when the $hit hits the fan.
I think it would be good for you to wait a few more weeks. but worth to know that your manager many not have full control to make a raise happen, so you have to also search for better job that perfectly feats your career ambition in other organization or in different department with in your organization.
