ND-HR
Dear Team,
Can anyone please provide information of the zone of Mahabaleshwar (Maharashtra) for Minimum wage act.
Is it under Zone I, Zone II, or Zone III?

The zones are defined in the notification issued every 6 months under the minimum wages act.
You need to see which zone definition your city falls under.

Hi ND

I happened to find this definitions while looking for something else (but I still suggest you look at the notification to ensure you are correct).

DEFINITIONS

Group A - Comprising the developed areas, viz. Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) and Pune Metropolitan Region (PMR).
Group B - Comprising the areas where some development has taken place.
Group C - Comprising the areas, which are less developed than those at Group B.
Group D - Comprising the lesser-developed areas of the State not covered under Group A / Group B / Group C.
Group D+ - Comprising those least developed areas not covered under Group A / Group B / Group C / Group D.

Zone I - Comprise of the area falling within the limits of all 'A' and 'B' class Municipal Corporations Zone II - Comprise of the areas falling within the limits of all 'C' and 'D' class Municipal Corporation and 'A' class of Municipal Councils and Cantonment areas Zone III - Comprise of all other areas in the state, which are not included in Zone I and Zone II.

Dear Banerjee,

Thanks for detailed explanation for the subject.
My concern is how to define development work?
For my question, I want to find out zone for Mahabaleshwar, so how to judge development work? and how to conclude zone?

As per details provided by you, Mahabaleshwar will fall under Zone II or Zone III, but I am not sure, can any one please help?

Dear ND
I suggest you visit the office of the labour commissioner concerned (should be either mahableshwar or Mahad) and check with them. They will be able to tell you the zone. If possible, get it in writing. But even otherwise, they will be give you the correct answer
