Dear Sir,
The authority can award the difference of Minimum Wages, besides that the authority under Minimum Wages Act have a discretion, may impose a penalty of 10 times of total difference of wages in accordance with section 20(3) [i] of Minimum Wages Act, 1948.

Dear Paramjeet Singh
Why do you want to pay less than the Minimum Wages fixed by the appropriate government. If you pay properly, then obviously you can extract the required work from the workforce. If you pay less, then you must pay the same with restrospective effect and 3 times penalty. But in addition to that you must spend your valuable time in Labour Office and Labour Court and you must take care of Labour Department Officials also. Further your company's name and fame also will be questioned, which will have undue impact on your career too.
Please explain the same to your management. But to come out from the issue please discuss with the labour department official and explain that you are providing food for them which costs Rs.____ and accommodation & transportation to all the workmen. In addition to that you are sending the money to their home also (for which you must have some proof).
