Can company stop hra?

Dear Sir,

I am working in a Rajastan based company.

Company HR department forcing me from two months to take house available in company colony.

At first interaction with HR regarding this I refuse due to family member health and my son tution as if I change my resisdence than my son have to go for tution about 5 km daily.

On 28th February HR dept send mail that they cut my HRA as I am not coming in colony.

Below things to be considered.

* In my appoinment latter accomodation is not provided at the time of joining on May - 2015.

* I am getting HRA from the day of joining as it is a part of my CTC.

* Can company cut HRA suddenly for some employees HRA?

* Many employees are working in this company who are getting HRA and they are not forced to come in company colony.

* How can I take back my HRA?

* The decession taken by HR department is valid? Can they can stop my HRA?

* How they cut HRA of February month as they inform me on 28th February?

* Can I file complain for this and can I get back it?

* Wher to file complain?

Regards

Mayur

If you refuse to take the accommodation provided by the Company, then Company is not obliged to give you HRA.

agreed with above views.

Is your position and KRA such that our presence in colony is warranted for handling situations in establishment!

Cite the reason for deduction of Feb HRA as posted by you.

While you can cite other reasons to good offices of appointing authority, MD,CEO and precedence  as in case of  other employees…and ask to let you get HRA and stay in accommodation rented by you…

That is the last recourse within establishment.

You are likely to get a reply…. On declinature, acceptance and/or some further steps by employer for continued refusal by you…

Or change to any other establishment..

Thanks for your reply.

I think company can not reduce my CTC. So if company want to stop HRA they must adjust this amount and make total CTC same as earlier CTC.

But in my case they simply cut HRA and reduce my CTC.

To get back this amount what to do?

Wher to file compalin?

Regards

Mayur.
