Seniors, please tell me what the statutory day is for disbursing the salary of a company. Is there any statutory ceiling on salary in this regard? What is the rule for payment of salary/wages?
As per the Payment of Wages Act 1936, the due date for salary payment is within 7 days after the completion of the month if the number of employees is below 1,000. If the number of employees is 1,000 or above, payment should be made within 10 days. The ceiling for the salary as per the Payment of Wages Act, effective from 8.8.2007, is Rs. 10,000.
By law, the protection is only up to a salary of Rs. 10,000.
Regards,
Abbas. P. S
