I have not come across any statute prescribing any minimum limit for HRA or conveyance allowance. In the absence of it, the contract of service shall govern the issue. Thus, unless you have contracted to pay conveyance or medical allowance at the rates mentioned above, i.e., Rs 800/- and Rs 1250/-, there should not be any problem in paying Rs. 600/- and Rs. 1000/-.

Conv. Allowance & Medical Assistance components (Rs.800/- & 1250/- p.m. respectively) are max. tax exempted components as per Income Tax rules. Not mandatory to stick to max. limit. Pon

I have mentioned in my earlier reply that I have not come across any law on HRA. It should be read as a medical allowance. So far as HRA is concerned, some states like Maharashtra have passed a law on the minimum HRA to be granted by establishments.
