That is indeed true.

Yup thats true. By my estimate around 50+

What can be the impact of this large bench strength

Yes, that's indeed true. There are large scale cross platform training programs being executed to enhance the skill levels/cross train to make them project ready. But the pipeline is dry, expecting better times ahead.

Is there any adverse effects of having low utilization?? Are we answerable for it?

You're answerable for what you're doing while and if you're on bench. Make sure to connect with your coach/RL to ensure you upskill/cross train and/or get certified. Good time to learn some new things and be ready for projects.

It is true.
People are doing some proposal work or shadow someone. Without any code.
Util will be affected.
Pipeline seems to be dry.

Well, yes there is a very huge bench, like someone said 50+. Yes it will affect our annual performance tier. I even heard they fire people with a too much high and unjustifiable bench period. Situation is grim.

I'm concerned because the leave encashment & other things totally depends on the basic salary.

Are there not any rules for the Basic salary to be at a certain % of CTC or it depends totally on the company?

Also PF deductions they are offering only 1800 p.m but considering 20000 basic it should be 12% of 20000 right?
