Variable Pay Eligibility If I Leave Mid-Financial Year

Hi everyone,

My company has 10% of my annual CTC as variable pay. The variable amount is normally paid along with the salary at the end of the financial year.

I’m currently considering leaving the organization around October, so I would have worked roughly 6–7 months of the financial year.

My question is:

If I resign and leave in October, am I generally eligible for pro-rated/partial variable pay for the months I worked?

Or do companies usually require employees to be actively employed on the variable payout date to receive it?

Has anyone experienced a similar situation in an Indian IT/company setup?

I’m trying to understand what typically happens before making my decision. If you've been through this, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience.
