Dear Sir,
I have gone through your request for increase in salary but I find that a tidy increase of ____________ (Amount) is rather more than we generally grant in cases like yours. Yet I have decided to grant your request on the ground that in the near future you will be given more onerous and responsible work of colour printing. My confidence in you that you will be able to handle colour printing should please you more than the extra money because to the young and diligent persons like you, opportunity is much more important.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
Your salary from ____________ (Date) will be ____________ (Amount) per month excluding all allowances payable to other employees.

Dear Sir,
I regret that at the moment we are not in a position to grant a hefty increase of ____________ (Amount) in your salary. Our business still is in the doldrums and we have not been able to feel the ground due to losses and unexpected expenses.
However there is a ray of hope that things will brighten up soon and we will be out of the red and when good times return, we shall be able to consider your request. Meanwhile like the rest of us, you must also have patience.
(Name),
Manager
