Hi Guys, Can you please advise how to calculate the Minimum Wages for Leather Tanneries? In the Government Gazette published on July 18, 2018, it is mentioned in Page 643 the following. But it does not make sense to depend on All India CPI for deriving Minimum Wage in TN, wherein all other industries focus on Chennai or nearby cities CPI. Your help would be much appreciated.
The employees shall be paid dearness allowance in addition to the minimum basic rate of wages specified above. For calculation of dearness allowance, the base shall be taken as 176 (base 2001 =100) being the average of All India consumer Price Index Number for the year 2010. For the further rise of one point over and above 176 points, an increase of 90 paise (Ninety paise only) shall be paid per day.
