Dear All,

I want to understand whether HRA is a part of minimum wages as defined in the MW Act. I understand that HRA has to be 5% of Basic + DA. Please let me know under which notification this has been notified in Maharashtra.

Wages as per the MW Act are inclusive of all allowances. Can HRA be included to arrive at minimum wages?

Thanks,

Hi,
I need information on minimum wages. Please let me know what components should be considered for minimum wages. Is it only the basic pay that needs to match the minimum wage ceiling, or should HRA and other allowances also be taken into account?

I need advice and any references from where I can get these details.

Dear Vasu,

According to the Minimum Wages Act, it only considers Basic+DA. This means that the minimum wage consists of only Basic + DA, with no other components.

As far as I know, the Minimum Wages state that a specific amount of money is to be paid. It does not specify that the basic should be the amount mentioned in the Minimum Wages. Additionally, there is no restriction on what the basic pay should be, but overall, the total amount should equal the minimum wages required to be paid based on the category of work.

I kindly request other members to correct me if I am mistaken and to provide encouragement if I am correct, so that I may continue helping in this regard.

Thank you.

Dear,

Payment of HRA is not compulsory at all. However, in the case of employees receiving salaries at a higher range, we take income tax points into consideration. From an income tax perspective, pay 40 percent as HRA because tax can be exempted on the same.

Understanding House Rent Allowance (HRA)

HRA, or House Rent Allowance, is provided to employees. It is a part of the salary, but employers are not obligated to include HRA as a component of the salary. However, it is considered in the ESI deduction.

Dear,

As I know, HRA is not compulsory, but for salary breakup, you need to have the required percentage in HRA. The required percentage is 40% of basic in non-metro cities and 50% of basic in metro cities.

Thank you.
