Dear Experts,
If the Union made a Settlement with Management
If the Basic + DA determined by both parties are more than minimum wages at the time of Settlement + Other Allowances per month ( Settlement is for 3 years )
But if after 01st year the minimum wages has been revised ( Basic + DA ) but the Settlement wages are less than minimum wages ( Basic + DA ) but including all allowances the Wages per month are more than minimim wages then can union ask for revision of Basic + DA though the wages per month are more than Minimum wages prescribed by the Government?

Union has already made a settlement for a particular period of 3 years so it is bound to follow it. had the term of settlement contain that in case of revision of minimum wages supersedes the settled wages then the maximum of those two shall prevail then the problem would not have arisen.
