The minimum wages in India are governed by the Minimum Wages Act of 1948. The Act is administered by respective state governments, and hence, the minimum wage varies from state to state.
For Uttar Pradesh, as of 1st October 2020, the minimum wages across different categories are as follows:
- Unskilled: INR 8,424 per month
- Semi-skilled: INR 9,314 per month
- Skilled: INR 10,244 per month

- Unskilled: INR 8,819 per month
- Semi-skilled: INR 9,699 per month

However, these are subject to revision, and it's always a good idea to check the latest notifications from the Labour Department of the respective state. You can visit the official websites of the Labour departments of Uttar Pradesh
