Under the law back wages relates with the wages, which have been withheld or not paid on account of any order specifically affecting the wages, this may be order of termination or suspension. The terminology "Back wages" do not include any other benefit payable to an employee in terms of money unless there exist specific orders of the court concerned in this regard . Only salary/wages (Basic plus D.A.) payable to comes within the ambit of "Back wages"
