Hello,
My name is Ankit and am working in Faridabad. Kindly tell me the minimum wages (updated) of Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
Also, do we consider minimum wages as basic salary or gross salary? What are the important points which we need to take care regarding minimum wages?
Thank you in advance...

Thank you for this information Mr. Malik. However, I have a concern.
Suppose, we give Rs.5,500/- as a gross salary to the employee in Delhi, in this case, should the basic salary be Rs.3934/- or it could be less than that (40% of gross salary)? Please clarify.

Dear Ld. Friends,
This is in fact a very good question on the enforcement of Minimum Wages Act, 1948 which draws the attention of a no. of HR personnel. The employers who are already giving daily rate of wages or consolidated monthly rate of wages are not to think over this issue. This question arises only for those employers who want to give wages under basic wage with different types of allowances. The main point which creates the confusions regarding this subject is the definition of wage [sec. 2(h)] and Minimum Rate of Wages [sec.4] of M W Act, 1948. According to the definition of wages, it includes all remunerations including HRA. The heads which are not to be included are also given in this definition. In my opinion we should at first must examine section 4 of M W Act which consists of three ways of fixation/ declaration of minimum rates of wages by the appropriate Government & thereafter we are to go through the fixation of minimum rates of wages notification of the respective State that under which para of section 4 the rates have been announced. For example, in Haryana State this notification shows that the rates are all inclusive that means that bifurcation in wages head is allowed and thus the rates have been announced according to para (iii) of section 4. If this is not allowed then what is the necessity of having this para in picture. There are already two paras i.e. sec.4 (i) (ii) of the ibid Act in question. If this type of confusion persists then Govt. should come forward to clarify the situation & should clearly indicate in the notification that under which of the para they are issuing the notification.
Other Ld. Members also requested to give their comments on the issue that in which situation bifurcation is allowed.
