Hi,
As per the notification from the labor office (DA), the minimum wage in Maharashtra for unskilled labor is basic 3600 + DA 3927 = 7527 + 5% HRA 376 = 7903.
My question is, if we are paying a gross salary of more than the minimum wage, i.e., Rs. 10,000, but to save on PF costs, we are showing basic + DA = 7000, HRA 2800, Team Allowance 200.
I need your advice on whether this salary structure complies with the Minimum Wages Act.
