Hello friends,
We are running a facility management co. and are primarily in to housekeeping and maintenance. Presently many of our staff are employed on minimum wages. Now my question is like this;
Can minimum wage be broken down further in to basic + Hra. Since PF is not applicable on HRA can an exemption be sought? Is there any court ruling which will be able to support this claim.
Illustration: The current minimum wage is Rs. 150/-
Is it legal to have basic Rs. 115/- + HRA Rs. 35/-
Please advice
