Hello,
I have heard that there are some companies that do not mention the salary breakdown in the appointment letter. Recently, I heard of an incident where the employer asked the HR department to include a clause in the appointment letter stating, "COMPENSATION- Details of the salary breakdown are attached in Annexure 1," without providing the employees with the annexure. Is this practice legal?

No, you got the information wrong. Many companies don't mention the salary breakdown in the offer letter but in the appointment letter. They sometimes might just mention "as discussed" to avoid employees misusing offer letters. However, I feel this practice is silly, stupid, and foolish because tomorrow, either the employer or the employee could take advantage of the "as discussed" clause and manipulate the commitments made during the interview.

Dear Ravi,
I am well aware that many companies do not mention salary in the offer letter. Even we follow that strategy. However, the issue I have mentioned is regarding the Appointment letter. This company is writing down the salary in the resume of the employee, which is being maintained in his/her personal file, but they are unwilling to mention it in the appointment letter.

As far as the appointment letter is considered, the main letter should mention basic salary, grade, post, etc., while the detailed salary components are attached as an annexure. Therefore, it is compulsory to include all details in the appointment letter.

The query is if a company is not mentioning the compensation package in appointment letter is it doing a legal thing?

Hi All,
In my view, companies should mention the salary breakup in the employee's appointment letter because the salary breakup facilitates both the employee and the employer to understand how much of the employee's salary comes under each category. These salary components help employees save on income tax.
Including the salary breakup in the appointment letter removes confusion for the employee and ensures satisfaction on their end.
