Clear answers to common questions about methodology, edge cases, and privacy.

Does EPF get deducted from an annual performance bonus?

No. Statutory EPF is calculated on Basic Salary + DA, not on one-time performance bonuses.

Does the Bonus Calculator send my financial or salary data to a server?

No. All calculations inside the Bonus Calculator run 100% locally in your browser using deterministic TypeScript formulas. Your income, loan, or investment figures are never uploaded, stored, or shared.
