Hi!!!
I would like to know what comprises of minimum wages?
A company is paying a fixed gross salary comprising of Basic, HRA, Books & periodicals and Deputation Allowance and the total is fixed every month. Can this be considered as minimum wages?
OR, will only the basic be considered as minimum wages?
Kindly provide me with documentary proof also in support of the justification.
Thanks & Regards

Abir! Every State Govt. in its Gazette publishes the minimum wages after every six months which contains the total payment in the head of wages.
