Basic wages are the most relevant portion of Minimum Wages. It does not include any other allowances or benefits. Purely, it is the base or the relevant portion of wages fixed by the Minimum Wages Committee appointed through notification by the government. Every other allowance is paid to the employee in addition to the basic wages. Basic wages are 100% of basic wages only. Variable Dearness Allowance based on the Consumer Price Index and Municipal Allowance, etc., are paid in addition to the basic wages. According to the Supreme Court judgment, Minimum wages contain only two portions - basic wages and DA for calculating the Gross Minimum Wages.

Dear Sudhanandan,
I believe your establishment/company falls under the Kerala Shops and Establishments Act and not a factory (unless it involves in a manufacturing process), in which case these scales would be applicable to you.
Category: Basic - DA (Nov-Thrissur) - Municipal Allowance
- Office Manager: 4204 + 797 + 100
- Accountant: 3954 + 797 + 100
- Electrician: 4104 + 797 + 100
- Helper: 3877 + 797 + 100
- Driver (LMV): 3954 + 797 + 100
Incidentally, I could not find specific scales for Draughtsman, Steel fabricator, and painter. However, similar scales for Steel Fabricator are Fitter/Mechanic/Technician with a Basic of 3954, and for PAINTER, it may be considered as 3954 (similar to the Polishing category). A Draughtsman may be considered as technical staff with a basic equivalent to that of an accountant, i.e., 3954.
The latest D.A. point at Kozhikode and Kottayam is available from the Labour offices or the website of the Department of Economics and Statistics. Dearness Allowance at the rate of Rs. 24.90 for every point over 130 points should be calculated. At Thrissur, the DA point for November is 162. Therefore, 162-130=32x24.90=797.
Service Weightage - All employees with service from 5-10 years should receive a 5% increase in Basic pay, 10-15 years should get 10% of the Basic, and 15 years or more should receive a 15% increase in Basic pay.

Dear Chikku Babu,
I was out of the station for the past few days, so I couldn't reply on time. In my opinion, I think your establishment belongs to a factory where a manufacturing process (of transformer equipment) is ongoing. Therefore, the Gazette notification for Shops and Establishments - G.O. (MS) 100/2009/LBR dated 23.7.2009, w.e.f 1.4.2009, may not be applicable to your establishment.
From what you have described, the process in your establishment may be related to minor engineering, and the revised minimum wage rates are yet to be notified. Hence, the old rates still apply.
For the latest minimum wage rates, you can contact me via my mobile on office days. Alternatively, please reach out to Mr. Muhammed Ziyad or Smt. Sarala, Assistant Labour Officers of Ernakulam. Their offices are located in Civil Station, Kakkanad.

Yes, DA must be calculated separately as it changes upon the change in Consumer Price Index (D.A point). Wages consist of two portions - Basic Wages (constant until the next revision) and fluctuating D.A.
Salesman/Saleswomen - Rs. 3954 Basic + Rs. 797 (DA in Thrissur)
Group C includes Packer, Cleaner, Washerman - Rs. 3877 + Rs. 797 (D.A)
Group D includes Peon, Watchman, Attender - Rs. 3800 + Rs. 797 (D.A)
The only condition is that the total minimum wages (basic + DA) must be paid to employees. Any addition exceeding Minimum Wages is not a concern, and the employer is free to give anything in addition to MW.
