1: This is also applicable for Teachers. But I think the (Basic Pay + Grade Pay + Dearness Allowance) exceeds Rs. 20,000/- p.m. in case of teachers. So they are not eligible to get the bonus.

This is applicable for all the state aided organizations. Likewise schools are also falling under the purview of this order.
