Thank you, Mr. Mikky Vij, for sharing the SC order Judgment copy. What was the outcome of this case? Whether the bifurcation of minimum wages is authorized or not. Is it possible to pay the PF only for the Basic Wages part on Minimum Wages, or do we have to pay for the VDA also?
The clarification in this regard will help our members.

It may be recollected that in a Review Petition by Surya Roshni Limited vs. Employees’ Provident Fund and Another, 2012 LLR 42, Division Bench of Madhya Pradesh High Court has held that Section 2(b) and 6 of the Employees’ Provident Funds & Miscellaneous Provisions Act define basic wages and HRA, overtime allowance, bonus, commission or any other similar allowance are not covered in the definition of basic wages but when special allowance, dearness allowance, conveyance allowance and other allowances are paid universally to all the employees, they would be treated as part and parcel of basic wages.
A special leave petition to appeal, as filed, came up for hearing on 13.7.2012, in which the above stay order was passed by Supreme Court. The case is still pending for final judgement.
Thanks

The employer had not stated or pleaded before the court who the contributions were paid to, and the routine inspecting authorities had not brought the disallowed allowances to the notice of the employer before the proceedings were initiated. Also, the Coverage Memos issued at the time of providing the registration number do not contain a clear definition of wages (Basic). These are instances of information suppression by authorities.
