Dear Seniors,

I need your suggestion. Since the stay order on minimum wages will not provide any relaxation to the company, should we proceed with revising the basic salaries? Additionally, there are a few employees whose gross salary is much higher but the basic salary is lower, for example, a gross salary of 22000 but a basic of 10100. Should we also revise the basic for these employees who are overall receiving more than the minimum wage?

I require assistance at the earliest.

Hi Manisha,

Yes, it needs to be implemented effective the same date of revision, i.e., 1st April 2017 onward. The appeal was filed by a few companies against it; however, it doesn't mean that it supersedes the order of revision.

Hi Manisha, The basic salary always need to be equal or more than the minimum wage. if it is not as so then you need to revise it also.
