pls confirm me under bonus act 1965 if the allocable surplus is greater than minimum bonus payable i.e(8.33%) is it Compulsarily an employer has to pay the bonus at the rate of 20%.or is it enough if he pay minimum bonus

Neither of the above two. You have to calculate the new rate by using formula = Allocable surplus/ wages But this % can't exceed 20% i.e. maximum bonus.
