The new compensation model is designed to reward a larger number of employees while helping the company manage long-term payroll expenses more efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"742\" height=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/trak.in\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/images-2-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Accenture To Offer Salary Hike, Bonus To More Employees: Lumpsum + Permanent Hike\" class=\"wp-image-1311959\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trak.in\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/images-2-1.jpeg 742w, https:\/\/trak.in\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/images-2-1-300x167.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 742px) 100vw, 742px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the revised framework, eligible employees will receive 50% of their approved salary hike as a permanent addition to their base pay, while the remaining 50% will be paid as a one-time cash payout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How The Revised Salary Hike Works<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The updated compensation model applies to employees receiving stay-at-level salary increases during the annual appraisal cycle. For instance, if an employee is awarded a 6% salary hike, only 3% will be added to the base salary, while the remaining 3% will be provided as a one-time lump-sum payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the company has clarified that this policy does not apply to promotions. Employees <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livemint.com\/companies\/news\/accenture-rework-salary-hike-50-pc-split-basic-payment-one-time-lumpsum-bonus-cash-include-compensation-more-employees-11784452932577.html\">receiving promotions will continue to have their entire salary increase added to their base pay<\/a>, ensuring that promotional increments remain unaffected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Company Aims To Benefit More Employees<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accenture believes the revised structure will enable it to extend salary hikes to a wider section of its workforce compared to previous years. Instead of concentrating larger permanent salary increases on fewer employees, the company aims to distribute compensation benefits more broadly while maintaining financial sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salary revision decisions will continue to depend on individual performance, business requirements, skills, and overall contribution to the organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mixed Response From Employees<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement has sparked varied reactions among employees. Some have welcomed the immediate financial benefit of receiving a lump-sum payment, while others are concerned that only half of the increment becomes part of their recurring base salary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since future salary hikes, retirement benefits, and certain allowances are often linked to basic pay, some employees believe the revised model could have a long-term impact on overall compensation growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Balancing Employee Rewards And Cost Management<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The revised compensation strategy reflects a growing trend among large technology companies to balance employee rewards with financial discipline. As businesses continue to navigate changing economic conditions, organisations are increasingly exploring flexible compensation models that support both workforce motivation and sustainable cost management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accenture has introduced a new salary hike structure that splits annual increments equally between permanent base pay and a one-time lump-sum payment. While promotions remain unaffected, the revised model aims to reward more employees without significantly increasing long-term payroll costs. The move has received mixed reactions, with employees weighing immediate cash benefits against slower long-term salary growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Accenture Introduces New Compensation Framework Accenture has rolled out a revised salary hike structure that splits annual increments equally between a permanent increase in base salary and a one-time lump-sum payment.
